configuration

2002-03-29 Thread Amit Sharma

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

Re: TightVNC 1.2.3 released

2002-03-29 Thread Constantin Kaplinsky

Hello,

> "RAL" == Robert A LaRock  writes:

>>> TightVNC 1.2.3 has been finally released.

RAL> I have been testing TightVNC and, with one exception, it seems
RAL> good to me.

RAL> I am fond of the Win2VNC program by Fredrik Hubinette. If I use
RAL> TightVNC, closing the Win2VNC program crashes the TightVNC
RAL> server. This happens if I right click on the Win2VNC icon and
RAL> pick Exit Win2VNC or if I shut down the TightVNC client computer
RAL> with Win2VNC running. It only happens if I use TightVNC on the
RAL> server. It does not matter which version of VNC is used on the
RAL> client, but using TightVNC on the server with Win2VNC on the
RAL> client causes the problem. It's my guess that it has something to
RAL> do with the way Win2VNC disconnects from the TightVNC server.

RAL> The server computer displays a WinVNC.exe application error box
RAL> with the following details: The exception floating-point invalid
RAL> operation. (0x0090) occurred in the application at location
RAL> 0x0040c202.

I've fixed this issue today. 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.

Re: configuration

2002-03-29 Thread barnowl

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

2002-03-29 Thread Roger Pray

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.

Roger

Roger,

Works fine on our Novell, and your machine is faster than any of ours.

Xvnc + XIE

2002-03-29 Thread Sharma, Shashi

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. 
Thanks
