Logon not able via Repeater

Post by jSoler »

Hello all

Im having a issue using a reverse connection with a repeater. The schema of connection is:

Server(W7) -- Repeater(WS2008) -- Viewer(W7)

The connection conf for the server is :

-id:1111 -autoreconnect -connect host:port -run

Everyting works perfect while a Microsoft user is loged into system, the viewer connect perfectly via repeater and there's no problem.

Once i'm loged into system and try to close the windows user session or change windows user session, the connection still working but i'm not able to do any further action in the windows logon screen, i can not select an user, no reboot system, even niether send the Ctrl+Alt+Supr order. So the screen is showed as a only view session, and i can not logon again even id a try to reconnect using the viewer instead repeater mode.

The most of the times i need to reboot systems remotly and work without user help, change user system etc ..., it seems to be a windows system premissions that deny to vnc to use logon system screen.

I aprecciate any help in order to resolve my issue, or any clue.

Thx for reading, and sorry for my english

Logon is only possible for a service

winvnc.exe must be running as service
But you can't start a service with a commandline

ultravnc.ini
service_commandline = -id:1111 -autoreconnect -connect host:port
"You need to enter the same as for the commandline ( without the -run)"

Shame on me

I have been using the same config for the last 3 days, i mean the service_commandline in the ultravnc.conf, just one difference, i always wrote the -run switch at the end of the line. It seems that -run execute the winvnc server like a program, and this is the fail on my conf.

I have tried your config instead mine and works easy, finally this is the line in ultravnc.conf:

service_commandline=-autoreconnect ID:1111 -connect host:port

Thx for your time, absolutly helpfull

I owe on you
