Upgrading from 1.0.0.2 ... silently

Post by rilex »

I'm looking for what procedures are needed to upgrade to the current release of UVNC. Here is what I have currently:

All target machines are XP SP2/SP3 (x86 only)
Targets run VNC as a Service, no UI is visible to the user
Using an rc4.key file
ACL is restricted to an Active Directory group (but I think in 1.0.0.2 that information is stored in the registry?)
Using RC4 encryption plugin
No hook drivers, no video drivers installed

I want to maintain this exact setup. Will using the /verysilent switch install the drivers/hooks?

I want to upgrade and it looks like part of that requirement is removing 1.0.0.2. So my steps would be (in a cmd script, I guess?):
Stop & Delete VNC Server service
Delete (?) C:\Program Files\UltraVNC
Install UltraVNC_1.0.6.4_Setup.exe /verysilent /setupinf=ultravnc.inf
Copy my ACL file to C:\Program Files\UltraVNC
Copy my ultravnc.ini to C:\Program Files\UltraVNC
Start VNC Server service.
Here is my ultravnc.inf:

Code: Select all

[Setup]
Lang=en
Dir=C:\Program Files\UltraVNC
Group=UltraVNC
NoIcons=1
SetupType=server_silent
Components=ultravnc_server_s
Tasks=installservice
AclFile=c:\Program Files\UltraVNC\ultravnc.acl
ultravnc.ini:

Code: Select all

[admin]
UseRegistry=0
MSLogonRequired=1
NewMSLogon=1

Avilog=0

PollForeground=0
PollFullScreen=0
OnlyPollConsole=0
OnlyPollOnEvent=0
MaxCpu=0
EnableDriver=0
EnableHook=0

SingleWindow=0
SingleWindowName=
Is there anything I'm missing?

Also, is there anything that describes the settings in ultravnc.ini and the setup inf file? I'm curious about these ones:

CaptureAlphaBlending=1
BlackAlphaBlending=1

...And if they solve the Office 2007 menus from not rendering.
