Need help with remote installs
Need help with remote installs
We are currently using Faspush to install VNC on remote machines. Its working ok, but I have heard of another program called vncspread. Does anyone have any comments on which one is better or like more?
Also when using Fastpush, I have added the latest version of Ultr@, but once I am done installing I get an error message telling mye my video drivers have not been installed, is there a way I can script the drivers so that the vid drivers get installed? Also I would like to start off using MS login mode to log into VNC after using fastpush, does anyone know how I can set it up so it does use the MSlogin for accessing the VNC machines instead of password?
TIA,
DC

I added the new dll files for the latest version of Ultr@ to my fastpush install folder. After doing an install I can connect to the remote machine, it asks for my pw, when I put in my pw, it then automatically reboots the remote machine not allowing me to connect to it. Any ideas why it is doing that?
Thanks
Thanks
I'm pushing out UltraVNC (without video driver) using FastPush. I had to modify the fastpush script to copy all the relevant files for ultravnc. I used the Windows Resource kit's reg.exe to export the registry keys involved to put in the default settings (hint, use regedit to search for both ORL and UltraVNC - the MS authentication is found under the latter). You could install the video driver via fastpush too, but you're going to need to reboot the box after install for it to work.
I'd love to, but... The key thing is to copy all the files, not just some of them. Not sure why fastpush doesn't copy *.* in the first place... If I remember I'll look up the common registry settings when I'm back at work on Monday and post them here.mendingo wrote:Any chance you could post your modified Fastpush script and reg-settings here?
Have you fastpushed the video driver? If so, could you post that script too?
Thanks.
DC - Could you tell us a bit more about vncspread? A google search for it came up empty.
I haven't tried intalling the video driver remotely - that's too risky for me.
The changes to the fastpush vnc.cmd script are trivial. We use version 7 of fastpush, but the concepts are the same - edit so these code snippets are in the appropriate places (note code here includes bits already in the script so you can find where to put it easily).prandal wrote:I'd love to, but...

How do you do a remote install of the mirror driver.
I would like to try and do a remote install of the mirror driver, I've spent a hour or two on google trying to figure out if I can do a remote install of the inf, but to no avial. Can someone point me in the right direction or how do do it. Thanks I'd like to roll it out to about 50 computers. here what I have so far. I inserted this line into the pushinstall vnc7.
if exist "%currentpath%\%flav%\mirrordriver" xcopy "%currentpath%\%flav%\mirrordriver\*.*" %targetpath% /f /r /v %nt%
I though about using psexec.exe by sysinternals, but they don't have administative access to install the driver. thanks
Brad

*giggle* have you ever wondered why the driver-download is at the same site? No? ... I am proud to know one of the two authors ... they promised there will be a new version someday in future (let's hope still in this decade)

what dlls should i add to ultra folder in fastpush for the latest version? I added them all and now it will install with no problem but when I go to connect to the remote box with Ultra it blue screens on me everytime, I think it blue screens because of issues with the graphic drivers maybe because of the video hooks dll that gets installed, but this has happened on different machines. What could be the problem??

Actually Bradm is right. It's not possible to install video driver using psexec.exe from sysinternal.
But there is another solution for this problem:
As far as you remenber, the previous versions (up to RC14) of Ultr@VNC installer included driver installation. But sourceforge.net does not allow to host it
But it is possible to create installation package by yourself. For this you will need:
The only difference - you have to reboot.

But it is possible to create installation package by yourself. For this you will need:
- 1. Binary distribution of Ultr@VNC
2. Video Hook Driver
3. InnoSetupCompiler
4. Some free time
- 1. Unpack Ultr@VNC binaries
2. Unpack the driver into the binaries folder
3. Install InnoSetupCompiler (assosiate it with .iss files)
4. Open .iss file from the folder
5. Edit the file by adding the following code into the respective sections
Code: Select all

7. Compile.
The only difference - you have to reboot.

I am trying to do this with the current rc205 build... but there is no binary zip download. I am only able to find the setup builds. Anyone know where I can download the 205 binary build from? Or can someone post the .iss file used for the 205 or 203 release and I can pull the files from a computer where the software has been installed?
have a look at http://www.uvnc.com/RC202/

- 1. Unpack Ultr@VNC binaries
2. Unpack the driver into the binaries folder
3. Install InnoSetupCompiler (assosiate it with .iss files)
4. Open .iss file from the folder
5. Edit the file by adding the following code into the respective sectionsCode: Select all
[Files] Source: setupdrv.exe; DestDir: {app}; Components: server; Flags: ignoreversion Source: driverupgrade\vnccom.sys; DestDir: {app}\driverupgrade\; Components: server; Flags: ignoreversion Source: driverupgrade\vnchelp.dll; DestDir: {app}\driverupgrade\; Components: server; Flags: ignoreversion Source: driverupgrade\VNCDRV.DLL; DestDir: {app}\driverupgrade\; Components: server; Flags: ignoreversion Source: driverupgrade\vncdrv.inf; DestDir: {app}\driverupgrade\; Components: server; Flags: ignoreversion Source: driverupgrade\vncdrv.sys; DestDir: {app}\driverupgrade\; Components: server; Flags: ignoreversion [Dirs] Name: {app}\driverupgrade [Run] Filename: {app}\setupdrv.exe; Description: Install Video Hook Driver; Flags: postinstall waituntilidle; Parameters: install; Components: server [UninstallRun] Filename: {app}\setupdrv.exe; Flags: nowait; Parameters: uninstall
Now it is possible to use new installation with VNCSpread script as before.
- 6. Also you may need to change some parameters e.g. "OutputDir" or "Languages"
7. Compile.
The only difference - you have to reboot.
