Why not just set your vncviewer in -listen mode and have a script that they all click on to make a connection back to you with the server? For example, your IP address is 1.1.1.1 and it's a public IP address. On your router, poke a hole so that port 5500 TCP can be passed to your computer. On you

You're right, I think that it is just a viewer but they do distribute a recompiled "SmartCode VNC Server" inside their vnc manager application with no source code available. Is that what he's talking about? BTW, it's still being sold by them and integrated into their commercial applications. A li

Tom, Have you checked out the UltraVNC single click server yet? You, the admin, create an exe with their tool that connects back to your computer when they double-click on it. It's really a no brainer for the end users because all that they have to do is double-click on an icon on their computer

To be completely accurate, you can hide the VNC icon if you deploy the UltraVNC version of VNC. There is an option to do this very easily when deploying via the wizard inside VNC Scan. I'm not sure about the other deployment tools. I totally agree with the we need to protect VNC's image as a rem

Andy, UltraVNC also supports view-only mode when used with the Microsoft login. For more information, check out http://www.vncscan.com/UltraVNC/Deploy_UltraVNC.htm On that page, look for 0x1 and that means view-only. -Original Message- From: [EMAIL PROTECTED] [mailto:[EMAIL PROTECTED]

I use a combination of both. I generally use RDP to connect to a single computer over the Internet and then use VNC Scan to manage all of the computers on that network using VNC from that desktop. This way, I only need to publish one TCP port 3389 to the remote network. RDP is generally faster

There are other free versions of VNC available that are still open source and have many of the features found in RealVNC 4.0 Enterprise. The best ones are UltraVNC and TightVNC. UltraVNC has more Windows features while TightVNC has a nice mix of features and platform independence. UltraVNC is

I wonder if the UltraVNC Video driver would work? I haven't tried it myself but it seems like it should work. You could try push installing UltraVNC and the video driver remotely over the network using VNCScan to see if it will work. You can get VNCScan at http://www.vncscan.com Here are the
