Hi everybody,
please see attached a patch for wincvs_src 1.2.1.
It gives a new parameter (only via registry settable) called AllowHTTP, which switches
HTTP-socket-generation off. Defaults to the current mode - socket enabled.
It works, tested.
But there's one problem I have.
I run cygwin sshd to tunnel the connections. This gives (using a "command=" shell
script in authorized_keys) a kind of menu for some management options, where one is
vnc.
As the user sitting in front of the machine MUST be able to stop the connection at
will it is required to use winvnc as an application, not as a service - thus if the
user locks the workstation, the connection is canceled.
BUT: sshd runs as a service using localsystem. if it is interactive, it shows some
dos-boxes - which is neither pretty nor good.
if it isn't installed as interactive, it cancels the incomming connections with
"failed to close input desktop" - IIRC in the getuserobjectinfo call, as it has no
rights to deal with the users desktop.
Is there some patch (or can somebody tell me in short) what there is to do to enable
this priviledge in winvnc? as it runs as localsystem it should be possible to switch
this permission on in the application - so every other call would be invisible.
Thanks for all help!
Regards,
Phil
