hi wez, everyone!
i while ago, i asked:
i'm planning to use realvnc both as a helpdesk and remote administration tool.
it's very important for me that my users don't feel they are being spied on, so i configured all servers on the windows 2k clients to display a prompt before accepting an incoming vnc request.
unfortunately, even when nobody is logged in, the prompt is displayed, although there is no danger of privacy invasion now. this prevents me from using realvnc as a remote admin tool in combination with wake-on-lan.
i'm almost certain this is a faq, but neither a web search nor the archives have provided a clue - probably a case of Badly Worded Search Request(tm).
if i'm really the first to ask this, how difficult can it be to add this little conditional before prompting, and have the developers thought about doing so?
it was discussed a little, with everybody agreeing this would be nice to have, and you eventually said:
Guys,
Personally, I think the default behaviour should actually be as you describe i.e. only prompt if there is a user logged on. The current behaviour is not very useful in the no-user-logged-on case.
In summary, I'll add it to the To-Do list for the next release. :)
Cheers,
Wez @ RealVNC Ltd.
i haven't yet seen this mentioned in the release notes - did i just overlook it or has it quietly fallen off the to-do-list? if so, i would really like to see it back on ;)
best wishes,
