Hello
I tried to enable the option "Refuse the new connection", but I was surprised that we were then 2 people connected at same time, fighting for the mouse control... Is it a bug? Or does it mean that 1 same account can't connect from 2 different clients... ? Or should this option be removed or renamed?
Strange that even that page, that should be a reference, as understanding the code source, shows ""Refuse all new connections" ??"... With this option, it refuses à 2nd connexion.

Re: Refuse the new connection
Vnc protocol made this little thing quite complicate.
1) You have viewer settings share or non shared session ( default viewers setting is shared)
2) Then you also have the server setting
The final result is a combination of both, giving a full matrix of options.
Refuse the new connection + non shared viewer -> refused
Refuse all -> independed of the viewer settings it's refused
Vnc clone the desktop of a pc, and unlimited can connect.
You can also start vnc as application, then he clone the current screen ( desktop/rdp1/rdp2..)
The number of viewers that can connect to the same server is unlimied. One teacher pc can share his screen to all student.
If you use multiple viewers you can set the input to collaborative (server setting "keyboard/mouse")
-then only one mouse has focus, no fighting
-all mouses are visible and independed
