one command

[sharonch]

Can I initiate the UVNC server and give the password at the same time from one command or from a control program?

If the answer is yes, what language do you use to do so?

This can be achieved by using a Batch Script with some 3rd party utilities.

I submit herewith a sample.
You need to download two free tools:
- vncpwd -- tool to encrypt the VNC password.
- inifile -- tool to write the encrypted vnc password into the file "ultravnc.ini"

Here is the structure of the Batch Script (I call it as Start_UltraVNC.bat):

Code: Select all

rem ===========================
rem Sample Batch File to start a UVNC server with specified password
rem Syntax: (the following example starts the UVNC server with password "123")
rem Start_UltraVNC.bat 123
rem ===========================
 

vncpwd.exe /v:%1 /f:ultravnc.ini

inifile.exe ultravnc.ini [connection] password > temp.bat

call temp.bat

inifile.exe ultravnc.ini [ultravnc] passwd=%password%00

start winvnc.exe


After all files (vncpwd.exe; vncpwd.dll; inifile.exe; winvnc.exe; ultravnc.ini; Start_UltraVNC.bat; etc) are available, put them into one folder.

Open a Command Prompt window, and goto this folder, and then run (for e.g) this command:
Start_UltraVNC.bat 123

This will start the uvnc server with password setted as "123"
