Hi Mary,
Judging by the path you specify below, it looks like you're trying to run the
tightvnc service from a remote network. While I'm not sure, I doubt that will work
since most networks require you to login.... Which is precisely what you're having to
do. If yours doesn't require you to login, then I would suggest really thinking about
the security implications. If you install the application and service locally, then I
would guess it will work. Also, I notice that you didn't use the double quotes in the
value of the key - as in:
""C:\PROGRAM FILES\ORL\VNC\WINVNC.EXE" -service"

yes it says it installed as a service when you do what you suggested.
Start button || Run... || winvnc.exe -install
and ''voila'', WinVNC installed as a service.
(Not installed in Start folder but on registry HKEY_LOCALMACHINE\....
\RUNSERVICES\WinVNC="C:\\WUTIL\\NETWORK\\Tightvnc\\WinVNC.EXE -service")
but it won't run like one. you still have to log in first.
am still working on forcing it to work

Hi friends;
I'm sorry but service mode in W98SE DOES allow log on remotely.
Start button || Run... || winvnc.exe -install
and ''voila'', WinVNC installed as a service.
(Not installed in Start folder but on registry HKEY_LOCALMACHINE\....
\RUNSERVICES\WinVNC="C:\\WUTIL\\NETWORK\\Tightvnc\\WinVNC.EXE -service")
The only ''problem'' (it's no problem but it's behaviour):
When you start WinVNC (app mode) asks you for password and options.
When WinVNC starts itself in service mode, ASKS YOU AGAIN!!
When WinVNC it's launched as service, have a cofiguration profile at HKEY_LOCALMACHINE
but when someone logs on (or simply launched as
Aplication) it's config it's at HKEY_CURRENT_USER.
Example:
If you install WinVNC as above and confirgure (password, optiopns...) and display 0;
reboot. BEFORE LOG ON, your configure same as above but display 6, an then log on.
To log on this machine you need to point to display 6 but after logon, client loses
link and then reconect but display 0 and works 100%.
Strange Behaviour but EXPLANABLE and easy understand.
I hope this helps someone
Regards
Juan Belmonte
