Oh, Ok. There are a variety or ways that you can do it. The built in way does use RPC, so I see why you're asking, but there are a variety of ways to distribute it. The reason that I included the use of RPC to distribute it is the typical scenario of the traveling support technician.
In this scenario, I am on the local LAN when I'm installing the clients, but when I need to remotely do things, I'm not on the LAN. The RPC will work for deployment because I'm on the LAN while I'm doing it but when I'm actually sending the scripts and commands, I'm out on the road somewhere or at another site. This is where the value of having the encrypted single port is evident. If you're NEVER on the local LAN, then, as you point out, the RPC will not be available to you (hopefully) so you'll have to use other ways to put the service on the remote computers. One way would be to put the four needed files: svc_vncscan.exe, unolibs.net.dll, xmlsettings.dll, and vncscan.key (your key file) onto an FTP server and VNC into the remote computer, then download them to the workstation or server. Once they are downloaded, you can install them using the command line: %SystemRoot%\Microsoft.NET\Framework\v1.1.4322\installutil.exe c:\path\to\svc_vncscan.exe. I've included a script to do so in the help file, too. Basically, you can use email, ftp, www, whatever to get the files on the computer and once they're there, just run that command and the service will be installed. -----Original Message----- From: James Weatherall [mailto:[EMAIL PROTECTED] Sent: Tuesday, February 01, 2005 11:28 AM To: Steve Bostedor; '0067881-0005'; 'Jerry Westrick'; vnc-list@realvnc.com Subject: RE: Can VNC Do This?

How do you "push the service out" to a machine that has it's RPC (file sharing, service control manager, registry) disabled?
