RE: PCanywhere and VNC
I have pcAnywhere 11.0.1 RealVNC 4.0 installed on my client's pc and my pc. I have been connected to my client's pc using pcAnywhere and RealVNC at the same time. I wanted to compare refresh rates. RealVNC was great compared to pcAnywhere. Both pc's are running Windows XP Pro fully patched. My client is not yet comfortable with RealVNC yet, so he uses pcAnywhere when he is out of his office. But this way I can still connect when he is connected.

Andrew, Check that the system keyboard layout does not differ from the one you are setting when trying to log in to the system - if they differ for some reason then the VNC Server will translate incoming keys to local key events using the system-wide mapping and the logon app will then retranslate them to the wrong thing, in this case screwing up the # key (Hash, not UK pound, which is # :) ) Cheers, Wez @ RealVNC Ltd. -Original Message- From: [EMAIL PROTECTED] [mailto:[EMAIL PROTECTED] On Behalf Of Andrew McCall Sent: 18 November 2004 15:10 To: Andrew McCall; '[EMAIL PROTECTED]' Subject: RE: Able to connect, but unable to log in to Windows server...

RE: mulitple displays not working
Andrew, The VNC Display Number does not have anything to do with the physical displays attached to your Windows PC, but is simply used to determine which port to accept VNC connections on. Making only the primary display available remotely is a characteristic of any VNC 3.3 based software, which TightVNC is one example of. VNC 4 works correctly with multiple monitors, making the entire desktop (i.e. all monitors) available remotely. VNC Enterprise Edition provides the functionality of VNC 4, but can alse remote individual monitors, via the DisplayDevice registry setting. You would set this, for example, to \\.\DISPLAY3 and VNC Server would then make only display 3 available rather than the entire virtual desktop.

We use VNC in conjunction with an Access Grid indtallation. Our Access Grid PC has 4 displays (0 is the PC console, 1,2,3 are the projectors). I want to run a Powerpoint (or any application) onto display 3 (ie screen/projector 3) and then connect using TightVNC from other sites (my test PC at moment). This is what I get: 1) connect to 123.45.67.89 (our AG machine) - display 0 (ie the IGCube monitor) is opened - as expected 2) try connecting to 123.45.67.89:3 - VNCViewer returns can't find server or similar 3) open up VNCServer config and set it to display 3 - VNCViewer now connects to 123.45.67.89:3 BUT displays the IGCube monitor (ie display 0 not display 3) - VNCViewer returns can't find server for 123.45.67.89 (ie all this has done is made some internal VNC name for display 3 which still really refers to display 0). 4) OK, so, I open up Control Panel / Display and set display 3 to be the primary (or similar) display. System does nasty things as expected to open windows and opens new apps on display 3, but when I then connect to 123.45.67.89 VNCViewer displays display 3. 4 is not a workable solution as we operate our AG on display 0 (ie not projected onto our screens) usually. I just did that to prove that VNC connects to primary display, and doesn't see the others. I don't think this is firewall as I have configured Kerio on this machine, and my test (VNCViewer) machine is in the same sub-net. Any suggested fixes / workarounds?

Some cannot be started (occasionally, at least) from an icon or from the Run command prompt in KDE, only from a console shell. Rekall crashes.

Hi All, My use of VNC V4 under Windows environment sometimes encounters a similar situation re case of entering data from VNC Viewer to Server. I have found in most instances the Server keyboard may inadvertantly be in Caps mode and the Viewer is in unshifted mode. There is little way of knowing if this is the case and all I do is put my caps key on the Viewer to get round logging onto distant Server. Just a piece of information.

RE: Able to connect, but unable to log in to Windows server... (U pdate)
John, No, the keys do give different character codes, otherwise the characters produced wouldn't match the symbols, since UK keyboards have both hash and pound symbols on them. What you saw in my mail is basically, a 7-bit ASCII vs 8-bit ISO-8859-1 thing, I think. The pound sign is character 163 in ISO-8859-1 while the hash is ASCII code 35 - ASCII mailers will probably fudge one into the other to allow it to be displayed. Cheers, Wez @ RealVNC Ltd.

How to handle protocol extensions
Dear VNC developers, I am extending the RFB protocol and would like to do it in a manner that is most beneficial for the community at large. The impetus for the changes are as follows: * Minimize bandwidth usage, and maximize performance on low speed connections. * Minimize the load and complexity on a RFB proxy/mirror server application. My experiments with 8 bit color depth have shown that applying bzip2 compression to an entire raw encoded full frame buffer update will save roughly 30% size over TightVNC's encoding scheme. This is significant for my application. Here is the proposed change: 1) Add a pseudo encoding type such as: #define rfbEncodingProxyFmt 9 2) Modify the FramebufferUpdate like so: /*- * FramebufferUpdate - a block of rectangles to be copied to the framebuffer. * * This message consists of a header giving the number of rectangles of pixel * data followed by the rectangles themselves. The header is padded so that * together with the type byte it is an exact multiple of 4 bytes (to help * with alignment of 32-bit pixels): * * JDR addition - if rfbEncodingProxyFmt is enabled, then: * 1) The 'pad' byte is followed by an unsigned long which is the block size * of the remaining frame buffer update. This makes it easy to proxy or * broadcast. * 2) If the first bit of 'pad' is set, then the remaining frame update is *bzip2 compressed. */ typedef struct _rfbFramebufferUpdateMsg { CARD8 type; /* always rfbFramebufferUpdate */ CARD8 pad;/* JDR - Used if rfbEncodingProxyFmt is enabled! */ /* CARD32 blkSz; -- Exists if rfbEncodingProxyFmt is enabled! */ /* If rfbEncodingProxyFmt is enabled and the 0th bit of 'pad' is set, * the remainder of the update is bzip2 compressed */ CARD16 nRects; /* followed by nRects rectangles */ } rfbFramebufferUpdateMsg; -- = John D.

Re: Install VNC on Solar 2.6
I've installed VNC4 on solaris 8 lately. Basically, you can start vncserver without any options. The tricky part (which I don't really like the way it works) is that you have to actually start a session on your vncserver by vncviewer -Shared hostname:display#, and do your work inside that viewer so that you can see your work from other machines later. Then you can start another vncviewer from other machine to view the same session you started on the server. So you are not seeing your desktop. This is much like Terminal Service on Windows. That's why I don't really like it, but it works. --- [EMAIL PROTECTED] [EMAIL PROTECTED] wrote: [EMAIL PROTECTED] wrote: Greetings, I would like to install VNC on a Sun Spac Ultra 5 running Solaris 2.6.

RE: Able to connect, but unable to log in to Windows server... ( U pdate)
Thanks Wez I can handle the explanation as I am well into ascii character code being a QBASIC programmer. Your probably correct in saying some applications may reduce 8big to 7big notation and thus lose the significance of the character code.

(U pdate) John, No, the keys do give different character codes, otherwise the characters produced wouldn't match the symbols, since UK keyboards have both hash and pound symbols on them. What you saw in my mail is basically, a 7-bit ASCII vs 8-bit ISO-8859-1 thing, I think. The pound sign is character 163 in ISO-8859-1 while the hash is ASCII code 35 - ASCII mailers will probably fudge one into the other to allow it to be displayed. Cheers, Wez @ RealVNC Ltd. I am sure you understand the country of origin's keyboard may display a different symbol however the ASCII key code would be equivalent. retranslate them to the wrong thing, in this case screwing up the # key (Hash, not UK pound, which is # :) ) ___ VNC-List mailing list [EMAIL PROTECTED] To remove yourself from the list visit: http://www.realvnc.com/mailman/listinfo/vnc-list
