Re: stopped working


Hello Rob Kraut,

I  just  have to ask the obvious question...  Has your IP changed recently?  I
have  a  friend who has an ADSL connection and uses a router.  His router ends
up  making  his IP very, VERY dynamic.  Your router could have renewed your IP
lease  and  instead  of just renewing the lease on the existing IP address, it
could have requested a new IP.

Just  the obvious possibility for problem.  If that's not the solution, I have
no other ideas...

RE: stopped working

I've seen this happen many times.  Usually when connecting to a win32
tightvnc server (v1.2.4+) you type the password in one time wrong, the
whole server stops responding.  Luckily, in those situations, I am able
to remotely restart the vnc service on the box and that fixes up the
problem.  

However for this problem, I got to ask, have you tried restarting the
computer

Cheers,
Steve

contacting the company

Anyone know a phone number or email address so that I can send my question to the software creators?  Maybe they know what's up...  I have a feeling it has to do with my system...but I don't know what would cause my VNC to be blocked.  It certainly isn't my firewall...I don't even have it running at the moment.
 
thanks

Rob, if you turn on allow loopback connections can you connect from the local machine?

status of java client

Forgive me if I am asking a question that has already been asked.

We were evaluating the latest unstable tight vnc server/client today and we were pretty impressed. Then we tried the java client and it didn’t seem to perform as well. Is the java client up to date with whatever changes have been made to the latest vnc server?

Re: status of java client

The java client is, well, slower.  It's java.  If you're expecting C++
performance from Java, you better have a 4GHz AMD-64 multi-cpu machine with
an appropriate OS.  That said, Java client is mostly up to date that I know,
granted due to it being Java some features are harder to include or take
more work and processing power, or perhaps are not doable with Java (there
are things you can't do with it).

Re: status of java client

Im not spokesperson for Java by any means, but well written Java 
nowadays, your statement simply isnt true. The Java VMs have come a long 
way since performance was that terrible. That said, this is a Java 
APPLET, so the code couldn't be written with performance being top 
priority, due to the strict 'sand box' that binds it within a browser.

RE: status of java client

Actually that's something we were considering, it is clear that java 1.4 is
much faster and we have no problem modifying the java client to better use
the newer better APIs, we just don't want to waste our time if there
wouldn't be great performance gains.

RE: status of java client

Thanks for the reply and sorry for the html format.

Actually funny that you mention it because I was testing on a dual opteron
with 4 gigs of ram and on a Pentium 4 3.06ghz with 1 gig of ram both over
gigabit Ethernet, now the server was a VM under VMWare however the regular
tight vnc viewer seemed to have no problem. 
I guess our main question now since you say the Java code is up to date,
would it help optimizing the code for newer JREs? Actually I am sure it will
but has anyone tried it? Before we spend time doing it we would want to know
if you guys think we would just be wasting our time?

Thanks again for the reply!

VNC Tunnel

Hi Everyone,

I was just a bit confused with the instructions at:

http://www.benjamin.weiss.name/putty-tunnel.html

I am trying to connect to a Windows XP system outside our firewall / proxy 
using VNC, from one of our office machines inside our department. I am not sure 
which machine I need to install puTTY on? I have tried it on the office machine 
but I do not know which hostname or IP address I should use? The machine I am 
on? Or the machine I am trying to connect to? Whatever I try it tells me 
connection refused?

I would greatly appreciate any advice...

Many thanks,

Clint
