No password function in direct connection in PCHW

Post by tiwae »

The viewer is configured for direct connection on port 5900 with a password (ex. "1234") .

In the PCHW CS GUI the password is set to "5678" or "-ask".

The problem is, that any PCHelpware SC-Server can be connected by port 5900 without password control.

- How can the passwordfuntion be activated in this case?

Sorry for my english.

The password is to protect the server, not the viewer.
The viewer password serve, to authenticate the viewer.
