Scott: Heya. The biggest advantage to running your own server rather than using the demo server is the privacy. The demo server is a lot like a public restroom. :) But I should decline on expanding that analogy too much...
And yes, the echoServer can be installed on one of the two machines involved in the EchoVNC session (i.e., the VNC Viewer or VNC Server PC). As long as the echoServer PC can accept incoming connections, it all works. It doesn't matter if those connections originate on the same LAN, the same PC, or from outer space, cheers, Scott On Nov 12, 2008, at 4:19 AM, Scott Freeman wrote: > Hi again: > I'm running into the problems with TightVNC that probably make > EchoVNC a better choice.
