configuration
hi everybody, I have some queries regarding VNC. 1) I have put the .exe file of viewer in profile of all user in startup. So now when a user logs in it gets started automatically. But here too there are two issues ... a) How can i stop users from changing password for vnc configuration b) How can i stop a user from stoping the vnc viwer and listner.The icons of both appears in taskbar so anybody can stop them. I want to have settings that only administrator can stop it or change password while ordinary users do not have any access to it. Regards amit sharma __ Do You Yahoo!? Yahoo!

Re: TightVNC 1.2.3 released

The problem was that win2vnc and x2vnc requested screen updates only when a user moved to the second (vnc) screen. If the client disconnected before receiving the first update, that caused the problem here: vnclog.Print(LL_INTINFO, VNCLOG("Hextile encoder stats: dataSize=%d, " "rectangleOverhead=%d, encodedSize=%d, " "transmittedSize=%d, efficiency=%.3f\n\n"), dataSize, rectangleOverhead, encodedSize, transmittedSize, float)dataSize-transmittedSize)*100)/dataSize)); When the dataSize is 0, there is a division by zero. While Visual C++ runtime does not make the program crash (is just writes something like "efficiency=-1.#IO"), the Borland C++ runtime crashes. RAL> I mean no offense. I think TightVNC is great. I just thought you RAL> should know. Thanks for the info that helped me to fix the problem. The fix will be included into the next TightVNC release. -- With Best Wishes, Constantin - To unsubscribe, mail [EMAIL PROTECTED] with the line: 'unsubscribe vnc-list' in the message BODY See also: http://www.uk.research.att.com/vnc/intouch.html -
Re: configuration
Well for a start. You should change from having VNC in teh startup folder to have it run as a service. Also you really don't need the user running it in listen mode. The above goes for all windows flavors. As to the rest, what version of windows are you using? Check the mailing list for disabling icons. That has been an ongoing debate in here. I think tightvnc may have an option to hide teh icon's builtin already. don't forget ctrl-alt-del will still let them kill it.

Novell and VNC
Has anyone ever experienced any issues with VNC and Novell networks? We have noticed a few of our outlying locations on our Wan seem to be running extremely slow on running the Novell login script. These PC's are Celeron 500MHz+, 128MB Ram+ - and the only major change has been adding VNC. Any information is appreciated. Thanks.

Xvnc + XIE
I took the tightvnc code and modified config/cf/vnc.cf #define BuildXIElib YES Added the XIE directory from XFree86 3.3.2 src tree to the Xvnc tree and build it. I was able to compile everything cleanly but when I run Xvnc, the xdpyinfo does not show XIE extension. What else I have to do to make enable the XIE extension ? Maybe, I am doing something really stupid I dont know much abt XServer code so thats a strong possibility. If you can give me some pointers that will be very helpful.
