Login Screen

Hello All, I am trying to connect to a W2k server inside my office. The problem is if the server is at the logon screen, VNC replies with a VNC info window "Connection Closed". Howver, it seems that not all of my servers exhibit this behaviour. If I have W2k with SP1 it seems to work. With S

Re: Login Screen

Nick, Thanks for the suggestion. The server is set with a screen resolution of 640x480 at 16colors. I rarely install any other video drivers than the MS defaults on servers since I've been burned in the past when loading vendor supplied drivers (you know the whole fiasco with MS giving vide

RE: Strange problem with SSH tunneling

If you uncheck allow localhost and it works, then there is somethihng wrong in your SSH setup. Also when using NT, I use the connect string of ssh -L 5900:localhost:5900 -l username servername I don't think you can use 5901 on NT because it only supports 1 virtual display. 590x is valid for

Ports

I read as a security measure to change the operational port of VNC. How is this done in NT/2k? - To unsubscribe, mail [EMAIL PROTECTED] with the line: 'unsubscribe vnc-list' in the message BODY See also: http://www.uk.research.att

Viewer history

Where or how does the VNCviewer keep track of the recently accessed hosts? I have some testing machines in my list that I would like to clear out. - To unsubscribe, mail [EMAIL PROTECTED] with the line: 'unsubscribe vnc-list' i

Restricting IP

IN the VNC addons, there is a note on restricting access via IP using TCP wrappers. However there is a disclaimer at the top saying VNC server has similar functionality built in, but no details on how to use it. Anyone have any information on doing this? Thanks ---

Re: OpenSSH

Thanks to all that have replied thus far. However, my issue is that all the documentations describe "how-to" on *nix environments. While this can get a person started with key generation and placement, some information is completely irrelevant such as permissions and file locations. There

RE: zlib vulnerability could affect VNC

Looks like it could affect a lot more than VNC so that is probably the least of your worries if you are exposing systems using zlib to the internet. Seems like if you're running SSH it likely would protect you from any exploit of zlib. --

Web page

I am compiling the information I have uncovered in my setup of TightVNC with SSH and public keys into a walk through web page. I will release the URL when I have finished it and hopefully some of you guys can't sneak a peak and let me know what you think. It will be geared for newbies. On tha

VNC as a virus

This is really kind of bad news that Anti-virus vendors are classifying VNC as a Trojan. It then becomes difficult to know if your VNC installation has been replaced by a real Trojan or is infected by a real virus. No answers for this problem, just an observation. -

Re: VNC as a virus

Well, I've never had my AV software (Sophos) detect it as a virus. I'm just waiting to see how many AV vendors jump on the bandwagon. Seems like there's been quite a few reports in here lately about the winvnc.dll being reported as infected. As I recall both mentioned the big Mc as the culp

RE VNC

This is strictly my opinion but... The best thing about VNC is it is free and source code is available if you feel the need to alter it. It is also a fairly tight little program in regards to size and performance I think at last test it performed only second to Citrix. It's leading competito
