RE: how do i start by remote
If you're on an NT domain, and you're an administrator, you can connect to the servcies on the remote computer and restart the VNC server service. Or remotely reboot the computer (if it's not a vital system), using one of the resourse kit tools (Remote Shutdown, I think it's called), and on reboot, VNC should restrat (assuming you've got it installed as a service) Hope that helps. ------- | Ian Cowley | [EMAIL PROTECTED] | Tel: +44(0)7979 474830 | | Christ's College| www.iancowley.co.uk | +44(0)1380 721852 | | Cambridge, CB2 3BU | | ICQ: 37181817 | > -Original Message- > From: [EMAIL PROTECTED] > [mailto:[EMAIL PROTECTED]] On Behalf Of > niklas adolfsson > Sent: Sunday 22 July 2001 05:26 > To: [EMAIL PROTECTED] > Subject: how do i start by remote > > > i have by mistake shut down my vnc -server. can i start i by > remote in any way. > > niklas > - > To unsubscribe, send a message with the line: unsubscribe > vnc-list to [EMAIL PROTECTED] See also: > http://www.uk.research.att.com/vnc/intouch.htm> l > > > - - To unsubscribe, send a message with the line: unsubscribe vnc-list to [EMAIL PROTECTED] See also: http://www.uk.research.att.com/vnc/intouch.html -
RE: Silent Installation of WinVNC problem...
Hmm, the way I discovered of doing it ran thusly: Use rsetup from the NT4 Server Resourse kit to remotely install Rconsole on the target machine. Run rconsole - this runs a silent dos prompt on the target machinbe, and you can specify to do It with admin rights Inside said dos prompt, run a batch file with the following: Copy files (exe, dll, directory structure insode \program files) from a shared server folder somewhere run regedit /s vnc.reg (where vnc.reg is an exported .reg of the settings from a clean machine with VNC setup as preferred - this includes the password setting :) run winvnc -install Because it all runs as administraor on the target machine, no rights issues incur. Only works on a domain, but is brilliant, 'cos it's all totally remote. I used it to install VNC(fully configured) on a machine that I had never even seen, 200 miels away in one of our other offices, across the company WAN.

RE: VNC Noise
OK, here is the much-desired method that I developed for a silent network install of VNC: Install VNC on a test machine, and set it up with the right refesh properties and password that you want. You also need to set up any AuthHosts properties or the disabling of the 'Close VNC' and 'Properties' menu options on the system tray icon (documentation available on VNC website). Then export the registry entries to .reg files (we had three, from HKEY_LOCAL_MACHINE, HKEY_CURRENT_USER and HKEY_USERS/.DEFAULT). Export the whole ORL/VNC branch. Now, all you need to install VNC on any machine is to copy winvnc.exe, vnchooks.dll to c:\program files\vnc (or wherever) and omnithread_rt.dll to c;\winnt\system32 and install the .reg files. I achieved this by the following method: Use the NT4 Server resource kit command 'rsetup' to set up access to a remote command prompt on the target machine. Then use 'rclient' to connect to the remote comamnd prompt (thisa is a command prompt that is actually running on the target machine, but operates in the background, so the user sees nothing). Inside this command prompt, run a batch file that copies the files and runs the .reg files, then runs 'winvnc -install'. This copies all the needed files, the settings (in the registry) and then installs VNC as a service. At the next reboot, VNC server is running as a service. the bonus of this method is that there is no start menu entries, and the viewer is not installed. when the 'rclient' progam is used, you pass the administartor password to it (giving a command prompt with admin access on the target machine) and there's a switch to run a batch file and close. Hence the whole lot can be automated from a batch file. All that is needed is the NETBIOS name of the target machine, and if you have loads of them, the passing of the names to the batch file can be automated too. I have included the contents of the batch files below. Hope this all helps, if you have any more questions feel free to ask :) -- Ian Cowley Computer Services Dept.

Have you heard of the Computer Misuse Act, Privacy (under European Human Rights) or the Data Protection Act? I think that tall three of these apply when it comes to what system admins can and can't look at on a system. That is why the icon is there (apart from to provide decent functionality). Can you imagine the implications if system admins were allowed to spy on users at will without any sort of safeguards? I'm sure your personnel department wouldn't be too happy if they were typing confidential documents about employees if they knew they could be spied on. IMHO I think that the icon should stay and that any versions that have been recompiled to remove the icon should be condemned by ATT. I'm sure they wouldn't want the backlash if a spying case ever made it to court... -- Ian Cowley Computer Services Dept.

RE: VNC questions
The VNC server and viewer support multiple viewers, via the 'Shared Connection' option. This can be set when connecting a viewer (in the option, 'Request a shared session'). As for security, the AuthHosts setting in the registry (check the documentation) can be used to limit connection based on the viewer's IP address. IP ranges can be set to be auto-accept or auto-reject. I suggest looking at the documentation page http://www.uk.research.att.com/vnc/winvnc.html for registry settings available. -- Ian Cowley Computer Services Dept.

RE: remote installation of vnc servers
The basic thing is to copy the VNC files and settings to the target computer, rather than going through the setup process - these have the same effect. So first of all, install VNC on a clean computer, reboot a couple of times to make sure all the settings are staying put (I seem to remember sometimes the password doesn't hold on the first reboot). Then export the VNC subtrees from the registry. I believe there are three, in HKEY_CuRRENT_USER, HKEY_LOCAL_MACHINE and HKEY_USERS\.DEFAULT. Export them to three .reg files is easiest. Now all you have to do is copy the c:\program files\vnc directory and c:\winnt\system32\omnithread_rt.dll to the target machine and import the registry settings. This is done with the NT Server Resource kit tools rsetup and rclient. Rclient allows you to tuin a command prompt on a remote machine as if you were actually at that machine - the comamnd prompt runs in the background on the remote machine and doesn't affect the user currently on it. rsetup must be used to setup the remote command prompt service. Then rclient can be used to connect. You'll have to look up the details of the two commands, as I have forgotten and don't have access to an NT4 resource kit. The rclient should be run with the batch command switch on, and get it to run the following batch file: cd c:\program files md vnc copy \\server\vncshare\winvnc.exe c:\program files\vnc copy \\server\vncshare\vnchooks.dll c:\program files\vnc copy \\server\vncshare\omnithread_rt.dll c:\winnt\system32 regedit /s \\server\vncshare\vnc1.reg regedit /s \\server\vncshare\vnc2.reg regedit /s \\server\vncshare\vnc3.reg winvnc -install This will copy the relevant files, install the registry settings and then install VNS as a service. If you write a batch file to execute the rclient command, then you can pass a list of computer NETBIOS names to it (these are used in the rclient command) to automate the installation across aall 400 machines. Hope this helps. email/post if you need more info. ---------- Ian Cowley| [EMAIL PROTECTED] | www.iancowley.co.uk Christ's College | Tel: +44(0)7979 474830 | ICQ: 37181817 Cambridge, CB2 3BU| +44(0)1223 700648 | | -- People think I'm crazy but actually, I'm just bored > -Original Message- > From: [EMAIL PROTECTED] > [mailto:[EMAIL PROTECTED]]On Behalf Of Dani Tal > Sent: Sunday 04 March 2001 14:21 > To: '[EMAIL PROTECTED]' > Subject: RE: remote installation of vnc servers > > > Hi, > I am interested in this batch. > Do you have an idea on how I can use a common password for all > and change it > regularly? > > Best Regards, > > Dani Tal > Manager of Information Systems > & SBS operations in Israel. > Siemens Israel Ltd. > Hatamar Street 2, P.O.Box 58, Yoqneam 20692 ISRAEL. > phone: +972-4-959 00 95 fax: > +972-4-959 > 00 10 > e-mail: <mailto:[EMAIL PROTECTED]> web: http://www.siemens.com > > > -Original Message- > From: Ian Cowley [mailto:[EMAIL PROTECTED]] > Sent: Sunday, March 04, 2001 3:44 PM > To: [EMAIL PROTECTED] > Subject: RE: remote installation of vnc servers > > Are you using an NT domain? > If so, I have a batch program that will install VNC Server to remote > computers on the network. > > email me for more info. > > -- > Ian Cowley| [EMAIL PROTECTED] | www.iancowley.co.uk > Christ's College | Tel: +44(0)7979 474830 | ICQ: 37181817 > Cambridge, CB2 3BU| +44(0)1223 700648 | | > -- > People think I'm crazy but actually, I'm just bored > > > > -Original Message- > > From: [EMAIL PROTECTED] > > [mailto:[EMAIL PROTECTED]]On Behalf Of David Ng > > Sent: Sunday 04 March 2001 06:28 > > To: [EMAIL PROTECTED] > > Cc: [EMAIL PROTECTED] > > Subject: remote installation of vnc servers > > > > > > We have just started to use the vnc program . > > > > Can someone explain how to do remote installation of > > vnc server ?. > > > > We have 400 stations in 15 locations . > > > > We need method to automatically deploy and install vnc > > server . > > > > A batch file will be great . > > > > Thanks > > David > > > > __ > > Do You Yahoo!? > > Get email at your own domain with Yahoo!

This is a JPG, but I believe windows converts it to a BMP before using it, so it's not using the Active Desktop. -- Ian > -Original Message- > From: [EMAIL PROTECTED] > [mailto:[EMAIL PROTECTED]] On Behalf Of > James ''Wez'' Weatherall > Sent: Tuesday, May 22, 2001 11:48 AM > To: [EMAIL PROTECTED] > Subject: Re: MAJOR bug with 3.3.3r9 on Windows XP > > > What kinds of desktop background are you using? > > James "Wez" Weatherall > -- > "The path to enlightenment is > /usr/bin/enlightenment" Laboratory for Communications > Engineering, Cambridge - Tel : 766513 > AT&T Labs Cambridge, UK - Tel : 343000 > > - Original Message - > From: "Howlett, Simon (NESL-IT)" > <[EMAIL PROTECTED]> > To: <[EMAIL PROTECTED]> > Sent: Tuesday, May 22, 2001 9:10 AM > Subject: RE: MAJOR bug with 3.3.3r9 on Windows XP > > > > NO - This happens in NT4 and Windows 2000 - I has to be a > R9 issue - I > have > > reverted to 3.3.3R7 to resolve this... > > > > Simon Howlett > > NT Server Team > > > > > > > > -Original Message- > > From: Ian Cowley [mailto:[EMAIL PROTECTED]] > > Sent: 22 May 2001 00:24 > > To: [EMAIL PROTECTED] > > Subject: MAJOR bug with 3.3.3r9 on Windows XP > > > > If someone tries to connect to my VNC server running on Windows XP > > (Beta 2), and fail, my wallpaper is removed. > > > > Which is a bit annoying, as my friends now know this and so > > periodically attempt to connect to my machine in order to removemy > > wallpaper for me. > > > > All my friends are running Win2000 3.3.3r9, and me trying the same > > trick on them doesn't do anything, so I assume it's an XP issue. > > > > > -- > > - > > | Ian Cowley | [EMAIL PROTECTED] | Tel: > +44(0)7979 474830 | > > | Christ's College| www.iancowley.co.uk | > +44(0)1223 700648 | > > | Cambridge, CB2 3BU | | ICQ: > 37181817 | > > > - > > To unsubscribe, send a message with the line: unsubscribe > vnc-list to > > [EMAIL PROTECTED] See also: > > http://www.uk.research.att.com/vnc/intouch.html > > > - > > > ** > ** > > > E mail Disclaimer > > > > You agree that you have read and understood this disclaimer and you > > agree > to be bound by its terms. > > > > The information contained in this e-mail and any files transmitted > > with it (if any) are confidential and intended for the > addressee only. > > If you > have > > received this e-mail in error please notify the originator or > > telephone 0191 210 2060 or e-mail > [EMAIL PROTECTED] > > > > This e-mail and any attachments have been scanned for > certain viruses > > prior to sending but neither Northern Electric plc nor any of the > companies in the Northern Electric group of companies from > whom this e-mail originates shall be liable for any losses as > a result of any viruses being passed on. > > > > No warranty of any kind is given in respect of any information > > contained > in this e-mail and you should be aware that that it might be > incomplete, out of date or incorrect.

RE: MAJOR bug with 3.3.3r9 on Windows XP
Yup. Tried it with normal bitmaps and JPGs. Disappears both times. None of my friends (thay all have 98 or 2000) can duplicate this 'bug'. -- Ian > -Original Message- > From: [EMAIL PROTECTED] > [mailto:[EMAIL PROTECTED]] On Behalf Of > James ''Wez'' Weatherall > Sent: Tuesday, May 22, 2001 5:55 PM > To: [EMAIL PROTECTED] > Subject: Re: MAJOR bug with 3.3.3r9 on Windows XP > > > Hmmm.

The wallpaper disappears on connection and reappears on disconnection. I tried both the "kill all clients" from the server end (here), and getting the connecting end (a win2000 machine) to close its connection - bot hways work fien. So it's only failed connections that cause problems. -- Ian PS James: Are there any jobs going at ATT this summer? - To unsubscribe, send a message with the line: unsubscribe vnc-list to [EMAIL PROTECTED] See also: http://www.uk.research.att.com/vnc/intouch.html -
RE: Windows 2000 fun
It sounds like you're describing the "This computer is locked, press CTRL-ALT-DEL to unlock" screen, rather than the login screen. As far as I know, there's no way to get the authorization box to come up when the computer is in this state, as it's supposed to be one of the most secure modes the computer can be in. ------- | Ian Cowley | [EMAIL PROTECTED] | Tel: +44(0)7979 474830 | | Christ's College| www.iancowley.co.uk | +44(0)1223 700648 | | Cambridge, CB2 3BU | | ICQ: 37181817 | > -Original Message- > From: [EMAIL PROTECTED] > [mailto:[EMAIL PROTECTED]] On Behalf Of > Lanier, Brian (CCI-San Diego CCC) > Sent: Wednesday, May 23, 2001 12:47 AM > To: '[EMAIL PROTECTED]' > Subject: Windows 2000 fun > > > I have been using vnc off and on over the last several years > and have never had a problem.
