Saving connection data?!

Post by Coke »

Hey!

is it possible to save the connection data (server adress, loginname, password)in a file.. for example a *.vnc file? So that you will only need to doubleclick this file to connect to the server as a *.rdp file does this job for windows remote desktop connections.

Ah ok.

But if I press Ctrl + Alt + F5 while I'm connected and save the .vnc file it seems that it doesn't save the login data.

I'm using the Windows Logon... I think that's the problem.
I've opened the vnc file with an editor. I've added "username=.." before "password=" (which was empty) but it doesn't work at all.

OH Yes... I can repeat your result ....
Looks like it can save the ordinary VNC password only.

But personally I prefer not saving the login A/v or password into a .VNC file, too risky under security consideration.

Could you please tell me how has it to look like?

I can open a connection with:

..path\vncviewer.exe IP:PORT

But how can I add a Win logon Username and password?
