Hello everyone,
I am new to the group and this is my first posting. I am attempting
to deploy WinVNC across my LAN/WAN for administration purposes. (About
125-150 users using a variety of Windoze versions, mostly '95.) I am still
experimenting with it and have found that on most machines
Steve,
Please forgive my ignorance, but...
When I am attempting to install the Default reg. settings I simply go to
the start menu, programs, WinVNC, Administrative Tools, Install Default
Registry Settings. How do I apply the directory addresses you suggested?

Michael L.
Just for the record, The shortcut properties all looked correct. Double
clicking on the ".reg" file produced the same error. On this one test
machine I finally got it to work by opening the registry editor and
choosing "Import Registry File..." and navigating to the very same file

I'm sorry if I seem dense, (Its only because I am! LOL) but I don't
understand where I am supposed to put the quotation marks. The shortcut
points to target: "C:\Program Files|ORL\VNC\VNCHooks_Settings.reg" and
the *.reg file is exactly there. It is already in Quotation marks j
I do not think it's a legitimate use to implement it as "Spyware". Even if
the ACLU or other civil rights groups do not BBQ you, the bad press isn't
worth it. You are better off controlling at the hardware level. Remove
the games, filter the web browsers at the server, lock down policies on the

I have been working with VNC in my company and am starting to deploy
it throughout my company. My strategy is to install as a service,

Hey Alex, Thanks!! That was some answer. It wasn't exactly what I
was asking but it did help answer the question anyway. I was having
trouble when I entered the dword AllowProperties (0) to disable the
properties function on the systray icon, sometimes it worked and sometimes

I think you could just remove (or not insert) the 'RemoveWallpaper'
registry entry. I have been manually inserting them as I install on user's
machines. However, they SHOULD know when you log onto their machine. If
they are doing something they shouldn't, you still caught them red-handed

It should not be too hard to set it all up in a batch file " *.bat "
and have it install, then run the shortcut for the default reg. settings.
Then the shortcut for the " Install as Service" and " Run Service Helper".
Finally run a " *.reg " file to install your default reg settings such

Drew,
I believe that the app mode and the service use different registry hives.
See the service icon in the task tray? Without starting the app mode,
Right click on it and choose properties and set the password from there.
Post weather(sp) or not that does it. I am curious if I am correct or no
Andrew,
I am not sure about doing it remotely, but you can change the password
by going to another machine with the same OS, changing the password to what
you want, then exporting the password registry key into a *.reg file. How
to get it onto the suspect machine is up to you. If you also
Luke,
The IP address 127.0.0.1 is a loopback address or something like that.
It is a default address for the card in your machine. I hope this helps.

Pardon me if I am wrong. Perhaps some of the other guys can comment on
this as well. Just because you are dialing up to connect to another PC, I
think you would still need a protocol. I would think you could use windows
networking for this. Go into the controlPanel\network area of windows and
I thought that is what this is?

I get poor results with the "RemoveWallpaper" option. Sometimes it works,
mostly it does not.

Robert,
You probably made a mistake somewhere in the install and setup and
cannot find it. I would suggest going to the troubled machine and
uninstalling VNC. Then go into the registrry and delete the 'ORL' keys.
Make sure you search the entire registry for any references to ORL or VNC

Hey group,
Something occurred to me while toying with a laptop for a dial in
user. The WinVNC icon doesn't appear until some form of network connection
is made. If one were casually observing the lack on an icon, one might
think there was a problem with VNC when there really was a problem
The user is supposed to know. This is a remote control program, not
Spyware. You are giving IT a bad name.

Here is something to try. Uninstall and them search the registry for the
key "ORL" and delete all referen ces to "ORL" and "VNC". Then Reinstall.
Right after you select the i"nstall as service" also select the "Install
service helper". See if that helps.
Have a Good Day,
Michael L.

Been there too! I would love an unconditional reboot option! Even in
person I have had to occationally go for the power switch to kill a
machine.

Yes there are power cycle devices. I have seen one that can reboot devices
remotly. It is called a Network Power Switch and this model handles 8
devices.

Good Morning Group,
I am writing a Windows batch file to install VNC on user's
workstations (mostly '95 and '98) without input from users. I have an

the WinVNCHooks.reg file and another *.reg file to put in the def
If you are removing from a windows computer, use the "Add/Remove
Programs" tool in the Control Panels. Then Go to your start menu, choose
"Run", Type in "Regedit" at the prompt and press "Enter". Now go to the
"Edit" menu and choose the "Find" command. Search for "ORL" and delete the
keys
Hey Lyle,
How did you make out?

David,
While I am not qualified to answer your question directly, I believe
that you are asking to much of VNC. I know how much the desktop wallpaper
slows down the connection and other screen changes take a few seconds to
refresh. Your application is probably too demanding for this softw

Hello,
I have a similar experience in my company. I followed the
instructions in the documentation and created an *.iss file. I would
recommend setting up a log-on script to run a batch file that installs the
hooks *.reg file, then runs the silent install. If you want you can also

OK guys, only slightly off topic. I keep my monitor at 1024 x 768.

Hello,
I have PCAnywhere on my workstation (P350, win'2000) and VNC as well.
I use PCAnywhere to connect to my servers and VNC to connect to my users.
I have not had a problem but I have never tried running them at the same
time.

I don't get it. What makes his question any different from any other
question? How does the "disclaimer" that he couldn't find a previous
reference to his question open you up for any liability? I'm not flaming.
I really don't understand your reply and would like an explanation.

Just a thought. For windows platforms: NetMeeting has a good file
transfer tool. With VNC already running, you can turn it on and off at
both ends yourself. I haven't had need to try it yet. I work within my
own network and have shared drives for that stuff. Good luck.

Thank you all for your efforts.

As I understand it, the Klez goes into the MS address book in a computer,
and sends copies of itself out to every name in the book using it's own
built in SMTP engine. It sure is being a pain in the ass lately! I am not

cool...
