File transfer problem

[skilover]

I am still having problems doing file transfers with an XP Home server. It only works if I log the server in as "owner". If I try to do it from the logon screen while no users are logged into their desktop, I get "file transfer permission denied...". Even if I log in as another user with administrator permissions I get the same thing. It only works if I log in as "owner" and while Owner's desktop is showing. Is this the expected behaviour?

winvnc 1.0.1 File Tranfer depend of 2 settings

• winvnc started as system service (user logged)
  [X]Enable [X] User impersonation (for Service only) -> FT allowed
  [X]Enable [ ] User impersonation (for Service only) -> FT allowed
  [ ]Enable [X] User impersonation (for Service only) -> FT blocked
• winvnc started as system service (user NOT logged)
  [X]Enable [X] User impersonation (for Service only) -> FT blocked
  [X]Enable [ ] User impersonation (for Service only) -> FT allowed
  [ ]Enable [X] User impersonation (for Service only) -> FT blocked
• winvnc running as user application (user always logged)
  [X]Enable [X] User impersonation (for Service only) -> FT allowed
  [X]Enable [ ] User impersonation (for Service only) -> FT allowed
  [ ]Enable [ ] User impersonation (for Service only) -> FT blocked

I had the same server and client version and still UVNC refused to allow my client to file transfer.

I had the server running as a service on XP sp2 and had BOTH File Transfer options ON.


I found that if I clicked OFF and then ON the 'Enable File transfer' option in the Server Helper then my file transfer was re-enabled!

Worth trying if you can't get it to work.
