Hello Scott, I have worked on adding a column for a network in the VNC service icon for MY LAN and for partner LAN. But the File transfer property panel has the combo box for the target display. Can you suggest the GUI for target device display in file transfer service icon?
Will the Zebedee server port specification be in VPN service icon for all LANs? I think we should add this field only for my LAN. Please give your opinion on the same.I have added the above GUI changes in WinCVS. Please let me know if there are any changes required. I have tested the zebedee server command with the target host as 0.0.0.0/0 but it did not work. I tested it with target list as 192.20.10.0/24 192.20.10.5 where 192.20.10 is my network ID and 192.20.10.5 is the IP address of the zebedee server host. My working zebedee command is : Zebedee -s 192.20.10.0/24 192.20.10.5 The same command fails if I do not specify 192.20.10.5 this is documented in the zebedee documentation.
