No it is not possible to send a single window. A workaround can be to work full-screeen. For unix/linux based vnc-servers: you can use a dedicated vnc-session for the purpose of the window. ___ VNC-List mailing list VNC-List@realvnc.com To remove yourself from the list visit: http://www.realvnc.com/mailman/listinfo/vnc-list

Once we create the sessions on the server, the server will give you a number based on the order of the creation, right? So the server will give you session 1, session 2 and so on. The problem is that if we create two sessions on the server, there is no problem for us to use viewer to access those two sessions. But if we create more than three sessions, only the first and the second sessions can be accessed by using viewer. I don't know how to fix it. Do you know how to fix this? It might be because some ports are occupied by other processes. I had this problem once with ssh port forwarding using port 6010, and this made it so that vnc on :10, which uses port 5910 and 6010, would not work. Have you used netstat to see which ports are being used by other services on the server? I would look into that. Have you tried adding some sessions with higher port numbers? That is, don't just except the default :1, :2, :3, etc, but specify :51, :74, or whatever. Another question: Whos sessions are these? Are they all created by the same user? Some window managers, such as Gnome, will not reliably allow more than one VNC session.

help VNC free Edition 4.1
Hello, We are currently using VNC free Edition 4.1 server in our Linux machine. But the problem is that we can open several sessions on the Linux server. However, only 2 computers can access the server by using VNC viewer for No.1 and No.2 session. I have no idea why this happens. And what we want is to have more than 2 computers to access the server. We have no idea how to fix this problem. I guess the problem is that when we downloaded the VNC free edition from the website, we did not fill the detail information in the form and we just downloaded directly from the website. But I saw there is a deployment option for current or intended size of VNC deployment. Is it right that we need to specify the numbers of the computers? Or is it due to we are using the free edition which only let two computers to access the server? Could you please help me on this problem? Thanks a lot and have a good day, Yihong ___ VNC-List mailing list VNC-List@realvnc.com To remove yourself from the list visit: http://www.realvnc.com/mailman/listinfo/vnc-list

This depends on the linux distro you are using. Many current distro's do provide click-click-finish install/config of vnc. For Ubuntu (using the default gnome): - System - Administration - LoginWindow. There at the tab 'remote' you can configure what you like. for fresh logins. - System - Preferences - RemoteDesktop you can configure a way to take over the current desktop. Be noted, these might conflict as vnc defaults to use the same port (5900). On unix (including linux) there are way more ways to use vnc than on msWindows. It is even fairly easy to create a complete vnc-driven terminal-server machine. Describe what you want and what distro you use, then the answers can be much more tailored to your needs.

Re: Problem can you help
Mike - often times what you describe happens. Result - topic cannot be found. Wouldn't it be nice to start a wikidot which gives more information on topics, can be added to and submitted. Many times manuals tell us what something is (definition) and HOW it works. What manuals do not tell us is WHAT the process is to make something work and the RESULT expected outcome of the processes. So while we read and understand what it is; we are left not learning how to do it.

Hi, I am an inexperienced user who are running realVNC server on a PC to update two remote monitors with the same screen picture. An Intouch application is running as an HMI system on the PC, and the Intouch picture are displayed on both Remote Monitors. The problem is that the refresh time on the screen seems to be approximately 5 seconds. This is shown by alarm banners blinking very slowly, and there is also a clock on the screen that only updates every 5-6 seconds. We have tested the connection form the PC to the Remote Monitors by pinging with 2 bytes, and get a response time of 3ms, which should be good.

An Intouch application is running as an HMI system on the PC, and the Intouch picture are displayed on both Remote Monitors. The problem is that the refresh time on the screen seems to be approximately 5 seconds. This is shown by alarm banners blinking very slowly, and there is also a clock on the screen that only updates every 5-6 seconds. We have tested the connection form the PC to the Remote Monitors by pinging with 2 bytes, and get a response time of 3ms, which should be good. Any suggestions on what might be causing this slow screen update would be much appreciated. There's several ways for apps to update windows, and not all of these can be picked up in the same way. If this is a Windows system, then you should be able to improve the performance by using a mirror driver (a dummy graphics card driver that passes any updates to the VNC server). I'd suggest trying with TightVNC (http://www.tightvnc.org/), which is VNC compatible, and the DFMirage mirror driver (http://www.demoforge.com/dfmirage.htm). I think the commercial versions of RealVNC also support a mirror driver. Alternately, you can try changing the Capture Method within the VNC Server Properties dialogue (see http://www.realvnc.com/products/free/4.1/winvnc.html#Hooks) - polling may work better for your use case.

Re: help re file transfer
To my knowledge there is no FTP (File Transfer Protocal) to transfer a file between to remote computers. However something simple like any chat program does. Example I used yahoo chat to transfer files remotely rather that getting a dedicated FTP program for occassional use. Dale TightVNC (for windows version) has a file transfer capability as also UltraVNC and RealVNC Personal and Enterprise (these latter not free).

Re: help re file transfer
Depending on what you are looking to do, you could also try Yoics (http://yoics.com). Yoics essentially works at a VPN for VNC, but also allows folders of the respective machines to be setup as HTTP (or WedDav) folders. Since the application creates tunnels on it's own, there's no need to set any port forwarding. Also, when accessed via the Yoics web-site, everything is reverse proxied to ports 80 and 443, so even if you are in a restrictive environment (e.g. corporate) which blocks incoming ports - you'd be able to get to your files. best Ryo (yes, i work at Yoics).

Mike, Slightly off the topic of your questions, but FYI - the VNC Personal and Enterprise Editions both provide full in-built encryption and file-transfer support, amongst other enhancements over the current VNC Free Edition, and are of course fully cross-platform.

Re: help to configure my router
It is hard to tell you without looking at your configuration. But 2 comments: - Are you 100% sure your VNC service is on port 5800? - I had a similar issue and was a mistake. I had on my router a port range for another application and my range was from (example) 5000 to 5999. Then when I added the NAT for VNC I added a new entry for 5901, which never took effect until I fixed the range above. I hope it helps.

Please reply to the list. Well that's quite improbable. Since you're using a DHCP server, is it coupled with a DNS server? If yes, try to ping its dns hostname to see if you've get the correct IP address, and see if you've got reply. In case of absence of ping reply, investigate the cause of it.

Help about SDL abnormal color display in VNC viewer.
Hi, all,
I wrote a very simple SDL drawing program under linux (the code is
in the first attachment), it just shows a color (R=63, G=127, B=191)
in a 320x240 panel. If I run the program in X window, the color
displays correct. But if I use VNC viewer to connect the host and then
run the program, the color is abnormal, (see the second attached file,
the left part is the wrong displayed color, and the right part is the
correct color of R=63, G=127, B=191). Can someone help me about this
or is it a bug of VNC viewer?
Thanks very much!
BTW: I am using VNC viewer free edition 4.1.1. Also I have tried the
latest version of VNC, this issue still exists.
Best regards,
Xu Dongxiao

RE: Help about SDL abnormal color display in VNC viewer.
Dongxiao,
I'm afraid that the VNC List strips attachments, so I don't know what the
colour problem you're seeing is, but one common bug in X rendering code is
to assume that if the display is depth 24 that pixels are in RGB format.
Current Xvnc releases use BGR by default, which leads to red blue being
swapped if applications mistakenly assume RGB.
Cheers,

Hi again, Sorry - one other thing I forgot to mention is that if you are connecting to your VNC Server over a slow link then it will use a reduced colour level, which may lead to colours being approximated by a more limited palette.

I am using Xvnc (as a link to Xrealvnc) launched via inetd to connect to a gdm desktop on a debian distribution. My inetd.conf line looks like this: - vnc-1024x768x16 stream tcp nowait nobody.tty /usr/bin/Xvnc Xvnc -inetd -query localhost -once -geometry 1024x768 -depth 16 All works fine (get the greeter, login, get nautilus desktop) until I try to run a application from the menu that needs root access using gksu (e.g. synaptic). When I try one of these I get the keyring access dialog but then the launched app just dies with no further dialogs on the display. The Xvnc log for the session in /usr/adm/X2msgs shows that the launched application has been refused a connection to the server.

Who is supplying what token to whom, what token are they being checked against and where are they getting them from? Any ideas on how I fix this? Is there any way to up the logging level so I can see what tokens are being checked in Xrealvnc? For information. If I run a terminal app in the desktop and do a normal su and then launch synaptic from the terminal it works fine. Any help will be gratefully received.

Sounds like you'll need to setup a static IP for the linksys like 192.168.0.60 192.168.0.linksysWANip Setup the LAN of linksys uses a different range for LAN like 192.168.1.1 try not to use the same range for the linksys as the comcast modem has linksys may use 192.168.1.1 or 192.168.2.1 slips my mind right now Portforward incoming through Comcast to linksys port 5900 - 192.168.0.linksysWANip which linksys then will forward to desktop Sounds like you'll need to setup a static IP for the Desktop 192.168.1.100 Portforward incoming through linksys to Desktop port 5900 - 192.168.1.100 Its easy enough to do; have it on a few of my double triple firewall systems comcats uses 192.168.0.1 for internal gateway Setup the WAN of linksys uses a Static IP 192.168.0.50 [192.168.0.linksysWANip] dyndns has a configuration to not use certain external ip numbers or ranges ensure both internals are in the don't use list ;-) Steve Corazon Crema wrote: Yeah.. everything looks correct... when I use 192.168.1.100 from my VNC viewer inside my house there is no problem, connection to the server is ok... when I tried with the real IP address 98.207.xxx.xxx it keeps giving me the timeout, I've disabled all firewalls...

Need some help with Xvnc/xdm configuration
Hello, I'm new to this list and I've tried to search for solution/troubleshooting info on google and realvnc site to no avail. Here is my configuration: Centos 4.5 + vnc-server 4.0.11 rpm. Local X server configured with vnc extension works fine. Logging in locally via xdm works fine. What I want to achieve is something like the setup, explained in this message (http://www.realvnc.com/pipermail/vnc-list/2006-April/054769.html), just with xdm, not gdm. All other prerequisites were satisfied. The problem is that I'm getting completely blank vncviewer window that stays without changes until, I guess, timeout expires. I can not get any diagnostic of what is wrong - no errors from xdm, no errors from xinetd and where Xvnc sends it's errors I have no idea. According to documentation it is able to send errors to stderr/stdout currently which is not any good in this situation. There is also mysterious InetdLogFile mentioned once here http://www.realvnc.com/support/serverlog.html - without any explanation how to turn this on/off (neither I could find it anywhere else on the internet). Looks like what I'm looking for but can't get it working.. I'm pretty sure the problem is with Xvnc - but I don't have any way to figure out what's wrong. Any help will be appreciated. And, RealVNC guys, the better you document the less repeated annoying questions you will get - please fix InetdLogFile mystery. ___ VNC-List mailing list VNC-List@realvnc.com To remove yourself from the list visit: http://www.realvnc.com/mailman/listinfo/vnc-list

Need help with Netgear router and VNC connection...
I have a home network hooked up through a Netgear wireless router. I am hard wired to the router and I have 3 other systems that connect to it via the wireless signal. The issue I am experiencing is, I can log on from my work computer through realVNC (server/viewer) and stay connected with no issues. However, once I log off and wait for any length of time (say 30 minutes or so) when I try to reconnect from the outside I cannot get connected. I get the unable to connect/timeout error/comment box. It's like my router is completely tuned out to my outside request. The home computer does not seem to loose the connection to the router as it's still able to get on-line and even VNC my work computer. Once I reboot the router (someone in the house does it for me) I can then log in again just fine. If I log off and log back in immediately there is no issue. I don't seem to have any other issues like loosing the connection while I am logged on, just when trying to log back on. I have the port forwarding set up correctly and have tried playing with the router settings (ie. turning UPnP on and off, trying different MTU sizes, etc.) but to no avail. I have set my personal ip address up as a reserved number (.10) so that I always get the same ip whenever my computer connects to the router so there is no conflict with the other wireless units. Might be something simple but I'm just not figuring out what to do to allieviate this problem. Any help would be greatly appreciated. I have also tried different port settings through VNC and have also tried TightVNC but get the same results with either. Thanks! _ Hotmail to go?

I have a weird problem with my VNC., The vnc server is on a linux host in my office. I usually login from home through vnc viewer through VPN client. I have 3 pcs at home. I could get access to the vnc server from one pc but on the other two PCs I have problem. The VNC session asks for a password and then it denies access to me. It looks like it is communicating ok but it is not giving access to the viewer. I checked my password and what i am typing is correct in both computers and I see same problem. wonder why it works on 3rd PC. any help is greatly appreciated. one more thing is I used to access my office PC through remote desktop connection from home PC which has XP. Now I cant even access my PC through remote desktop connection. I am not sure if these are related. But I got both problems at same time. Thanks a lot for the help in advance.

RE: Help Connecting
Robert, Firstly, I'd strongly recommend using a version of VNC with in-built session security such as VNC Personal or Enterprise Edition, or running VNC through a secure tunnelling protocol between the two systems. At a guess, I'd say its most likely that you have tried to connect to the server computer too many times, and so your viewer IP address has been blacklisted for a short while, in defense against potential brute-force attacks. If you upgrade the server computer to a standard VNC 4 series server then you can set it up easily to log information on connections, including reasons for them being closed.

If that's the case, that means your VNC isn't in SERVICE mode.

For my case, I am only prompted if I try to access my work PC, which happens after it is rebooted, remotely through Real VNC Viewer v4.1.1. But I have no problem to access my work PC through VNC Viewer if I have already logged on and locked the system prior to me leaving work. The error is: SASwindow: winlogon.exe - Application Error The instruction at 0x77e3b6f6 referenced memory at 0x43beb2e8. The memory could not be read. Thank you.

Re: Help
Two ideas to determine if the problem comes from VNC or the PC: 1. The usual one. Does a ping to your PC get replies? And in both situations: before and after login. 2. Share a folder of your choice. Of course, test it first that it's accessible when you're login. Then test if you could see the shared folder before you're login. Lim, Ying wrote: Thanks James.
