RE: WinXP - windows loose focus with mouseclick, only startmenu works

2003-12-02 Thread Mark Hauchwitz
Hi again,

no luck with pressing and releasing them on the client side, neither with
sending ctrl down/up and atl down/up to the vnc server.
It seems that the vnc server service detects the mouse click but can't
forward the event to Windows (explorer). The application windows just loose
focus if you click on them...

Mark.

Check that the Ctrl or Alt keys aren't "stuck" - press and release them
while VNC is running and then try clicking on windows again to highlight
them.

Re: VNC & AOL Broadband

2003-12-02 Thread Shawn Clabough
I think you're running into a problem with AOL's proxy.  External IP 
addresses are shared between users (similar to NAT), so even using an IP 
finder service, it will not give you the distinct IP address for her 
box.  If you can somehow start the request on her side, then it might work.

Thanks to everyone who responded!  Two of the best sites for determining

http://www.whatismyip.com/

However, there is still a problem, which I suspect has to do with port

router, you need to open a port on the Forwarding page of the router 
configuration to get to the machine on the other side of the router.  I 
still can't get to the friend's PC, even though we now know the address 
of the modem.  With Linksys, you can open a browser window and go to 
192.168.1.1, which takes you to the setup.  This address doesn't work 
with the modem, and I don't know what else to try.  There MUST be a way 
to access the modem's settings from the PC!

Any more ideas?

WinXP - windows loose focus with mouseclick, only startmenu works

2003-12-02 Thread Mark Hauchwitz
Hi all!

 

I have VNC 3.3.7 installed on 2 WinXP Pro machines. 

Accessing via the VNC client works fine, but I can't use my mouse buttons. 

They will only work to give focus to (click on) applications shown in the
task bar. Anything else looses focus when I click on it (windows, buttons,
input fields, icons).

 

That problem bugs me,

Does anyone have a solution for that problem or is it a known bug?

 

Thanks,

Mark.

RE: Version 4 Beta performance issues

2003-12-02 Thread James Weatherall
David,

Glad to hear it's not a general 4<=>4 problem!

With regards to cursor-flashing - VNC 4 grabs the screen using a more
complete blit operation that the VNC 3 releases, which is necessary if
things like alpha-blended windows (Winamp3 and the like) are to be
visible.  A side-effect of this more complete blit from the main display
is that the cursor flickers while it's happening.

Hmmm hadn't tried a combination, but I still had a couple of smaller
machines with Beta 4 on them ...

I can't reproduce the problem on these machines 4<=>4, or on any 4<=>3
combination!!

Odd.  I'll reinstall at some stage (probably the weekend) and try it again
on the two main machines.

One thing I did notice though.  When I was running Beta 4 viewer on my
laptop to Beta 4 server on my desktop - which is the machine pair I was
having trouble with - the mouse pointer on the server system was flashing
away like crazy.  On the two smaller machines I see a slight flashing of the
mouse pointer, but nowhere near as bad as it was on the desktop.  Under
server 3.3.7, the desktop cursor is steady as a rock.

The desktop is a 1000 MHz AMD Athlon, with 256kb cache, 640 MB RAM, SiS 5598

1800:  800 MHz Celeron, with 128kb cache, 192 MB RAM, Trident CyberBlade Ai1

I also find that double-click performance with 4.0b4 is worse that 3.3.7. My 
only comparison is
windows98/2000/xp all with 4.0b4. In particular, certain applications (such 
as the Xilinx

double clicking on windows icons.

I saw already what you meant exactly, but the approach isn't quite the same.  
Let's take the analogy of opening a document in two ways:
1) Open the application.  In "recently opened" list choose the file we want.
2) Open file manager and go deeper and deeper in the directories to find the file.  
Then open the file.

Both methods are complimentary to one another.  None can replace the other.

Version 4 Beta performance issues

2003-12-02 Thread David Smart
I've put VNC 4 Beta on my machines to give it a run.  I know it's only a test
version, but I'm finding significant performance problems compared with the
version I had been running (3.3.3 I believe).  Specifically:

-  Double click is almost inoperative.  I've tried slowing down and speeding
up my normal double click speed, but it very rarely fires.  This contrasts to
the previous version which was reliable in almost all circumstances for double
click.

-  Clicking in the "page down/up" part of a scroll bar very frequently locks
up and scrolls to the bottom/top of the document.  Quickly moving the mouse
pointer off the scroll bar after the click is the only way to avoid this.  The
previous version showed this problem only on rare occasions.

I'm going to have to move back to version 3 as this Beta is unusable in my
environment, but I wonder if these are known problems with the Beta.

(My environment is Win 2K, 100MB LAN, smallest machine is 800 MHz and has 192
MB RAM.)

RE: VNC Beta V4.0b4 with ZoneAlarm Pro V4.5.530.000 on Win2K Pro Desktop

2003-12-02 Thread James Weatherall
Andy,

We've had a couple of other reports of problems when users upgrade to
ZoneAlarm Pro 4 and try to use VNC Viewer 4 and have been talking to
ZoneLabs about it.

Can you clarify which machine (viewer or server) ZoneAlarm Pro is
running on and "protecting"?  Can you confirm that you are describing an
actual inability to connect viewer to server, rather than a more subtle
degradation in functionality?

Cheers,

Wez @ RealVNC Ltd.

RE: Suggestion : VNCviewer connection prompt accepts command line options

2003-12-02 Thread James Weatherall
Assuming that you are talking about VNC Viewer 4, the functionality you
describe already exists in the form of .vnc configuration files.

IMO, your problem resides in an upper level:
Java client doesn't support viewonly mode !

Is this a neglection in programming?

RE: VNC over shared internet connection

2003-12-02 Thread Seak, Teng-Fong
Since your friend's Server 2 acts like a router (proxy), you have to tell him 
to do "port forwarding", also called "virtual server".  But I also suppose your Server 
1 and 2 are window KK/XP, right?  Microsoft uses a different term.  It calls this 
"publishing".

Then you could check out other posts in the mailing-list because this topic is 
discussed again and again.

FYI, strictly speaking, your modems don't have IP addresses assigned.  It's 
the servers' "public" network interfaces which have the IP addresses.  By this, I 
would redraw your diagram as follows:

  +-+
  |Client 2 |
  +++
  192.168.1.2
   |
   | Intranet
   |
  192.168.1.1
  +++
  |Server 2 |
  +++
 200.97.31.173
   (Dynamic)
   |
   |
+--+--+
|Modem|
+--+--+
   |

But if you are very sure and confirm that the modems have IP addresses, that 
your diagram is incomplete because you forgot to mention the network segment between 
the modem and the  respective server.  This segment has its own network address.

Suggestion : VNCviewer connection prompt accepts command line options

2003-12-02 Thread Seak, Teng-Fong
VNCviewer's command line options are richer than what is suggested in the 
"Connection options" window.  Is there any plan to allow the "connection prompt" to 
accept also command line options?
 
If yes, that is quite cool because connection prompt has history, so we don't have 
to click on "Options..." to choose any particular option.

WLAN is breaking down if I use VNC

2003-12-02 Thread bigfrog902
Hi,
I use VNC 3.3.7 with my WLAN and WinXP Pro on all my PC's. It was running
very well and I didn't have problems with it. Then I reinstalled WinXP
(complete new, with fresh formatted disks...) on my Laptop, which I normaly use to
remote the other PC's. The WLAN network is running very well again, but VNC
not. I can connect to each other PC with VNC, but after the first (almost) or a
few actions on a remotted PC the network is breaking down, this means the
WLAN Adapters cannot reach their neighbours anymore (no network available). Now
I deactivate - activate each adapter on every PC and the network is running
again (if not I haveto do a restart on some PC).
The only change (that I can remember) to the prior well running system is,
that I installed the Microsoft WLAN-Rollup Patch: 
filename: WindowsXP-KB826942-x86-DEU.exe
downloadsize: 1069 KB 
public since: 31.10.2003
version: 826942

Thank you four help!!

As a quick hack until the next release, you could just compile two viewer

The version 3 viewer was based on Xt, but the 4.0 vncviewer isn't so
"resources" are meaningless to it (it uses parameters like all the other VNC
programs).  The only thing the "resource name" and "resource class" can be
used for is in identifying the viewer window to the window manager.

Cheers
