Re: [Echovnc-users] InstantVNC 2.00 beta available
Chris: Heya. Unfortunately, no RDP in InstantVNC. Microsoft changed things in Windows 7 so that the RDP service doesn't work well with tunneled connections to the loopback interface anymore; many web pages describing the similar problem seen by people using SSH to tunnel RDP sessions. Works fine on XP, but not on Windows 7. And, to my dismay, echoWare (used by InstantVNC) is built to use the loopback interface, and it'd be a pretty significant change to echoWare to get it working again. I guess I'm still hoping that a future Windows 7 service pack puts it right again. :) -Scott On Apr 23, 2012, at 12:39 PM, Christian wrote: Hi Scott, great job so far.

Re: [Echovnc-users] EchoServer for Linux version 1.67
Heyaz. I updated that package this morning to include a version built for the CentOS 5.5 flavor. Turns out ... CentOS is optimized for stability, so they hold back on some updates that other Linux flavors move ahead with. For example, libstdc++. On the echoServer we've built for demo.echovnc.com (which runs Debian 5), we use the recent g++-3.4.9 library, so we need a runtime library that is compatible with libstdc++-3.4.9. And ... CentOS' default libstdc++ isn't. Anyhow, for you CentOS users out there, there's now a build for you inside of that same package.

As described in the README file, the limiting feature of your Linux PC (in terms of how many echoWare clients it will accept) is the maximum number of open files. To see that limit: % ulimit -a To change that limit, try this command as root, prior to starting up your echoServer: # ulimit -n 4096 For upgrading users, any registration keys you have for earlier releases still work in this one; just swap in the new binary into your existing installation.

Re: [Echovnc-users] EchoVNC 3.0 beta
Steve: Yes, the old mirage driver definitely contributed to EchoVNC 2.35's instability. The larger problem, however, was that EchoVNC 2.35 ran it's own flavor of VNC server, and I was unable to keep up with the pace of Windows OS, UAC, and runtime library updates. In the 3.0 version, EchoVNC goes back to our 1.x approach in which it *invokes* a standalone VNC server only when needed. That allows me to focus on what we do well: provide a firewall-friendly connection to remote desktop services, rather than trying to maintain said remote desktop services hope that helps, Scott On Mar 25, 2011, at 10:04 PM, Steve Sobol wrote: inline: compose-unknown-contact.jpg Scott Best Friday, March 25, 2011 9:58 PM Heyaz.

Re: [Echovnc-users] EchoVNC 3.0 beta
Sean: Heya. To clarify, this is an update to the server side of EchoVNC (i.e., the side of the connection you want to take remote control of from somewhere else), not to the echoServer (which brokers the connect between viewer and server). However, we do, finally, have the spec written out for the MySQL updates to the echoServer ... Regarding command line options, I don't have any in this version of the EchoVNC server. I'm not sure that I had any in the 2.35 release either... -Scott On Mar 26, 2011, at 10:30 AM, Sean Kruis wrote: Scott, Any progress in switching the user database over to MySQL or some other dynamic database (though I would prefer MySQL)? Also, I might be wrong but the command line options limit you to a VNC connection. Can you add some command line options to the client to initiate the RDP connections? I've got the auto server installation, automatic user account creation and automatic remote access portions working through my support system but for some of the newer systems, RDP seems to be a little easier and if I could use your client to initiate those connections from the command line, it certainly make things a lot more flexible for me.

To use the application: 1. Select what type of remote desktop application you want EchoVNC to help with (VNC, Remote Deskop, or RAdmin). 2. Add an echoServer connection. By default it connects to our demo echoServer, but you can of course use your own. After that, it should be ready. Please note: in this version, EchoVNC is more than happy to work with any VNC server you already have installed. So if you're a big fan of RealVNC, TightVNC, UltraVNC (and who isn't?), please feel free to *keep using that server*. EchoVNC will simply help you make firewall- friendly connections to it. If you're not running a VNC service already, EchoVNC comes with one, and will kick-start it as needed. Try it out, you'll see what I mean. In this beta, you can also register EchoVNC as a service. Right now, the settings you create in standalone mode don't get copied over.

Heyaz.

Being a Mac user, I've also include a MacOS application bundle of the app; For Windows users, there's an exciting .BAT file. :) In addition to being a desktop app, it also works as a browser-based applet for those of you wanting to integrate an EchoVNC Viewer as part of a web-based remote support capability. The above zipfile includes the HTML documentation and examples that describes how the applet can be invoked using typical parameter=value pairs. I've not been able to test the app on Linux desktops (KDE or Gnome) yet, and I'd appreciate any suggestions or feedback you have there. Cleaning up the source now, then I'll get that online. It will include both EchoVNC and the echoWare toolkit portions. Once that's done, I'll be starting work on a Java version of our VNC Server side software, EchoVNC Envoy. Finally you'll be able to connect to a VNC server running on MacOS or Linux, not just Windows... cheers, Scott -- ThinkGeek and WIRED's GeekDad team up for the Ultimate GeekDad Father's Day Giveaway.

Re: [Echovnc-users] Problems with ultiple screens
Eeek, 4 monitors though. :) Whenever EchoVNC gives a VNC-ish problem, my suggestion is always to combine EchoVNC with a more modern VNC Viewer and Server combination. That is, EchoVNC consists of two pieces: one to make the connection, the second to handle the VNC session that's created. That second part can be handed off easily to another VNC program; it's an option in both the EchoVNC Viewer and EchoVNC Server. With this workaround, you get all the benefits of making easy connections with EchoVNC, and all of the benefits of state-of-the-art VNC support with other platforms (e.g., RealVNC, TightVNC, or UltraVNC). cheers, Scott On Aug 28, 2009, at 4:42 PM, Michael Wheatley wrote: I have the current versions of EchoVNC and Echo Server installed.

Re: [Echovnc-users] Windows 2008 Small Business Server (64 bit)
Gary: Heya. It's not an installation problem, it's a compatibility problem. Fortunately, EchoVNC can offload it's actual VNC sessions to other VNC programs that are Win2k8 compliant (e.g., RealVNC). When setup this way, EchoVNC just helps make the connection. Once it's made, the other VNC application handles the actual remote session. cheers, Scott On Apr 24, 2009, at 9:19 AM, Gary Eck wrote: Is there a preferred method to install EchoVNC on a Windows 2008 SBS (64 bit)?

Re: [Echovnc-users] Stupid newby questions - echoserver performance, rdp without servermirror?
Christian: Heya. Some answers: 1. Support for RDP and RAdmin is fully implemented in EchoVNC. 2. The same EchoVNC application can help make connections to both VNC and RDP, but you cannot have a VNC and RDP session active at the same time. 3. Exactly what version of EchoVNC are you running on the unstable machines, and exactly what flavor of Windows OS is on that machine? 4. An EchoVNC server will auto-reconnect to the echoServer. That is, once it's connected, it will always try to reconnect. If it connects and fails password authentication to the echoServer, it will stop trying to auto- reconnect. That is, assuming you have the latest versions of everything. 5. Please run services.msc from the Windows command line, and remove the old echoServer service instance, the one busy creating error messages. Then you should be able to create a new one that works correctly. Exactly what version echoServer and Windows are you running on your echoServer PC? cheers, Scott On Apr 20, 2009, at 8:36 AM, Christian Bechter wrote: Hello I'm new to EchoVNC and EchoServer and therefore some stupid questions (in fact not these are but myself i suppose...) - Do i need ServerMirror to connect to an rdp-Server or is it fully implemented in EchoVNC? - My Terminal-Servers are only XP Pro with Sala's Terminal patch, and on some machines i can select the option Allow EchoVNC to tunnel Remote Desktop connections, but not on all - all are patched XP pro machines. - Is it possible to run rdp and EchoVNC sessions on the same machine?

Re: [Echovnc-users] Echovnc Server for Linux
Sorry, late reply: we don't currently have an EchoVNC *Server* for Linux, though we do have an EchoVNC *Viewer*. I'm working on an InstantVNC Server for Linux, but unlike the Windows version, it would simply help make connections to on an already- running VNC server. And yes, generally speaking, EchoVNC does simply help make connections between a VNC Viewer and VNC Server, using an echoServer to help with that, encrypting the traffic end-to-end. cheers, Scott On Apr 10, 2009, at 1:24 PM, Troy Ready wrote: Oh, to be sure.

Re: [Echovnc-users] Black window when connected to client (cannot receive data)
Thanks for checking, and for tolerating my basic questions. Since there are at least three pieces in the system (Viewer PC, Remoted PC, and EchoServer), it's worth asking. The black screen problem is, as you know, usually a fault of how Windows deals with remote desktops, which conflicts with VNC. So let's try this: 1. Please try connecting to the remote PC *from the same LAN*. For example: use EchoVNC on PC1 on LAN1 to connect to PC2 on LAN2, and then open a VNC Viewer on PC2 and connect to PC3, also on LAN2. It would be useful to know if PC3 is not handling all VNC sessions, or just EchoVNC ones. 2. If you cannot connect to PC2 on LAN2 above, because of the black screen problem, please adjust EchoVNC so that you can use it to make Remote Desktop connections. Then connect to PC2 with Remote Desktop instead of VNC. The downside of this approach is that the remote user gets locked out and won't see what's going on (they'll see a login screen). Again, this will help isolate why VNC isn't working correctly. I very much doubt it has to do with IP packet traffic. However, to test this, please: 3. Adjust your echoServer so that it's listening to TCP 443 instead of the default (TCP 1328). You'll need to add :443 to the end of the echoServer address to make it connect this way. Please let me know if any of that helps. cheers, Scott On Oct 20, 2008, at 8:47 PM, [EMAIL PROTECTED] wrote: Quoting Scott C. Best [EMAIL PROTECTED]: 1.

Re: [Echovnc-users] Change the update period on the echoVNC software
Mr.King: Hello! I believe that the echoWare client sends an IsAlive message (about 30 bytes) to the echoServer once every 10 seconds, which works out to about 250kB a day, per EchoVNC client. The echoServer uses these heartbeats to detect relatively quickly if a client is still connected, and the heartbeats also help the TCP session alive thru any routers or proxies that expect periodic traffic. I'll ask the developers to compile a version of echoWare that has a reduced IsAlive frequency. We may also need to update the echoServer so that it doesn't confuse the reduced frequency with a disconnection.

We never used DSM although it was usually installed by default so why is it a problem now? As it is the upgraded server that is causing the grief then either something went wrong with the install or the 2.35 server has a problem. The only things I can think of are; that 2.35 might have been installed over 2.34 (ie 2.34 non uninstalled) but upgrading like this before seemed ok. Or the 2,35 upgrade was done whilst 2.34 EchoServer was still running and this has caused some problems in the configuration Whatever the cause, I now have to decide whether to go back to 2.34 on both sites or try a complete uninstall/re-install at the client site - over the telephone... ;-) Any other ideas?

[Echovnc-users] EchoVNC 2.35 update -- IMPORTANT
Hello! Version 2.35 of EchoVNC for Windows is now available: http://www.echogent.com/download_echovnc.htm or ftp://ftp.echogent.com/EchoVNC/windows/bin This version includes 3 minor updates, one major one: * Repaired Viewer connection box behavior * Repaired .vnc file behavior * EchoWare DLL repairs for large connection groups * Removed Java Viewer capability from the server About that last one...It has come to our attention recently that one of the EchoVNC features we inherited from our port of legacy VNC platforms has become the basis of a recent patent infringement lawsuit(1). I have given the lawsuit details only a superficial review, and I am hardly qualified to determine anything regarding patent infringement, patent validity, timeliness, or how the patent holder's grant of a GPL license relates to the issue. However, in my personal opinion, the lawsuit appears to be regarding a patent that teaches a method whereby a remote desktop server (e.g., a VNC server) delivers a Java Viewer applet to a Viewer-side user via an HTTP connection. In my understanding, this capability exists in the source code that is still available under a GPL license from the patent holder themselves(2). And while it has been argued that users and modifiers of GPL’d software have at least an implied license to use patented inventions included in the GPL’d software(3), in order to eliminate any possible risk of damages to the patent holder, I have decided to de-feature that legacy capability from future versions of EchoVNC, starting with the latest release, version 2.35. I politely request that all EchoVNC users update your installations to this latest version. Please note that this feature in *no way impacts* the distinctive, value added feature of EchoVNC, namely its firewall friendliness via the use of the echoWare toolkit. None of that changes, and isn't affected in any way by this update. Also, EchoVNC will of course remain open-source and GPL'd, as it always has been. Again, please do not mistake this letter for legal advice. I am not a lawyer, and do not even play one on TV. :) I am hardly the person that can analyze the obtuse claim language of this patent and determine whether or not it actually reads on what I'm sure many of you consider to be legacy, totally ordinary VNC software capabilities that is still available from the patent holder under a GPL license. If those details ever get worked out, perhaps the feature will come back in a future release. I apologize for the inconvenience, and am happy to discuss any concerns you might have about this decision.

Hello! Version 1.63 of EchoServer for Linux is now (finally!) available: http://www.echogent.com/download_echoserverlinux.htm or ftp://ftp.echogent.com/EchoServer/linux/bin In addition to improved stability, this version now allows you to bind the service to several ports simultaneously, for example TCP 443 and TCP 1328. Any clients connecting to either port can now be accessible to each other now. As mentioned in earlier emails, the primary focus of this release is improved stability with very large connection count.

Re: [Echovnc-users] EchoVNC as a Service under Vista
Michael: Nope, this is new to me. What flavor Vista? -Scott On Jul 29, 2008, at 5:50 PM, Michael Wheatley wrote: I’ve just upgraded to EchoVNC 2.34 on Vista w/SP1. I did a clean install (having shutdown the service, and removed the previous version). The new version of the EchoVNC server appears to be running correctly, but there is no icon in the service tray (after a reboot and check that the service is running and signed on to the Echo Server). Further, when I invoke the Run Service Helper, it appears to run for a couple of seconds but produces no visible result on the screen or in the service tray. And an attempt to run Show User Settings results in the message “No existing instance of EchoVNV cold be contacted”. Is this expected operation?

Re: [Echovnc-users] Redundancy
Steve: I presume you mean the Windows echoServer, as the Linux echoServer has a single .conf file which it uses for everything. In general, the Windows echoServer isn't very different from other Windows applications -- it uses the Windows registry to store most of its configuration settings. So you should export the registry keys associated with the echoServer into a .reg file, and then import that file onto the other PC. Also, the Windows echoServer creates a .dat file, in the installation folder. That contains password information, so copy that over as well. cheers, Scott On May 30, 2008, at 4:17 PM, Steve Sobol wrote: I'm setting up a server that will act as backup to the computer running the EchoServer at work. How do I back up the data (passwords, users, groups, etc) to the backup server? I guess my question is, exactly what would I need to back up? My goal is to be able to temporarily change Server 2's IP address to that of Server 1 if server 1 goes down, and have the Echoserver work as it normally would, without any changes to end-user PC's. - This SF.net email is sponsored by: Microsoft Defy all challenges.

That is, the echoServer acts as the connection relay between the other applications. I hope that helps! -Scott On May 3, 2008, at 12:24 PM, Mark Rhoades wrote: No... You setup one EchoServer that is accessible on the internet and all of the of the computers will connect to it. This configuration eliminates the need to configure firewalls. With InstantVNC you can put an executable on your website (preconfigured) and your client can download and run it. Then you will be able to take remote control of their computer. If it's a computer you need to access all the time they can install the EchoVNC software, configure it and then it will always be connected to your EchoServer. You can install an EchoServer to try it or you can request the demo EchoServer information from the Echogent folks if you want.

Re: [Echovnc-users] Buffer error on Echo VNC Server 1.61 NTPL
Larry: Two ideas I hope you can try: 1. On the PC that's having trouble connecting, please try adjusting its MTU size. http://www.dslreports.com/faq/695 2. On your Linux echoServer, open an SSH tunnel from TCP 443 on your external interface to TCP 1328 on the internal interface. Here's how I do it: % ssh -N -g -L 66.135.32.141:443:127.0.0.1:1328 [EMAIL PROTECTED] I'm using version version 4.3p2 of OpenSSH for that. What that command does is cause ssh to open a tunnel from the port 443 on the external IP address (66.135.32.141), and securely tunnel it to port 1328 on the loopback interface, where the echoServer is listening. On this PC, I also have an account echoserver which runs the service, hence the [EMAIL PROTECTED] part. Then, try connecting to your echoServer; just append :443 to the address. That will force it to connect to the SSH server first...

Re: [Echovnc-users] Small thing with EchoVNC 2.33
Mike: Hello! I am unsure about the preconfigured message; never saw that, not sure why it would happen. :) Am guessing that the user account you installed EchoVNC with did not have sufficient privilege to create the registry entry that EchoVNC uses for storing passwords. I believe errors like this is why UltraVNC finally gave up on using the Windows registry, and now writes all config information into a file in the install folder. Maybe we should consider that ... for whatever reason, MSFT is intent on changing the security model of their registry use ever service pack As for connecting at the login screen, you should simply need to install (register and start) EchoVNC as a standard Windows service.

I have a 20 mbit connection but have some heavy internet traffic from time to time. Will that be a problem? 3. What about the general performace of the machine running the echoserver? Will the connections be slow if the machine is multitasking a lot? 4. Are there any papers on how to set up the echoserver or is it just a next and next installation? Have a nice weekend!

I am on a 15meg x 2meg connection EchoServer is on a 1meg x 1meg connection Remote site is on a 512k x 512k connection I have been able to connect point to point eliminating the EchoServer and everything works well. Once the EchoServer is in place there is extreme slowness. Any ideas on how to solve this? Thanks, Mark - Check out the new SourceForge.net Marketplace.

Re: [Echovnc-users] Problem using EchoVNC with EchoServer
Mark: Hello! Those are some surprising results. I expect the relayed connection to be a *little* slower, but not *broken* slower. Exactly what version of EchoVNC, echoServer, and Windows OS are you running? -Scott On Jan 11, 2008, at 7:54 AM, Mark Rhoades wrote: Hello all, I am hope somebody can help me with this problem.

Re: [Echovnc-users] Weirdness with Windows 2000, and a question
Wow, harsh. Is there an old version of the mirage driver hanging around? Hard to imagine EchoVNC *and* UltraVNC crashing because of anything I could affect... -Scott On Jan 10, 2008, at 3:01 PM, Steve Sobol wrote: On Thu, Jan 10, 2008 at 05:59:47PM -0500, Steve Sobol wrote: The EchoVNC client is dying, and the Win2k box is ending up at the login screen, because it is blue-screening and rebooting.

[Echovnc-users] new demo echoServer
Heyaz. There'll be a bit of confusion with the demo servers as I make some adjustments here. The old one is still available, but at demo2.echovnc.com. And the new one at demo.echovnc.com doesn't seem to be stable yet. :) Each still work with passwords of demo2007 and demo2008. cheers, Scott - Check out the new SourceForge.net Marketplace.
