Thanks, both, for your responses (and any more that may follow!). :) I'll send a copy of the email to the RealVNC staff and anyone who I can find that can pick through the GPL to the required level.

(Repost) Curious indeed. The realVNC website clearly states the GPL is in effect (for the free version). I would think your scenario is similar to a Linux distro that is commercially sold yet contains MANY titles licensed under the GPL. One difference, however, is that your app "must have" the VNC binaries to function - perhaps this is irrelevant. We need a GPL veteran to comment here.

(Repost) I'm reposting this because I posted it a few weeks ago but got no response. Hope someone can answer my question. I have an app that I made which downloads & installs VNC onto a machine, and then makes an outgoing connection to a listening VNC viewer. I would like to sell my app, but first would like to check that I'm not violating any licenses and so on. I'm not selling VNC, I'm selling my app, which just downloads and runs the "winvnc4.exe" file with pre-defined params. How do I stand? _______________________________________________ VNC-List mailing list [email protected] To remove yourself from the list visit: http://www.realvnc.com/mailman/listinfo/vnc-list -- No virus found in this incoming message.
