Clipboard and KeePass

Hi,

I am using TigerVNC-1.2.0-6, server and viewer, on two computers running 
Linux.
On the computer hosting the server I would like to run the password 
program KeePass, but I cannot get copy to work in that program.
If I run Keepass local, i.e. not through TigerVNC, I can copy a password 
in KeePass, it shows up in the clipboard and I can paste it wherever I 
want. But, if i run KeePass on the server through TigerVNC nothing 
happens when I try to do a copy. In all other programs (at least the 
ones I have tried it on) copy works as expected.
Anyone that has a clue to what the issue might be?

Many thanks for any support!

/Mats

Save last server name?

Is there an option which can save last server name used in the viewer prompt?
Every time I click on TigerVNC Viewer, i need to fill the full path of
server and port number.
I believe turboVNC remembers last used server and can even get to
previous ones from dropdown list.

I am using TigerVNC version 1.2.0 on Windows-7 64bit.

Thanks in Advance.

regards
Manish

None I'm afraid. I've never set up an ssh server on Windows.

command line installation on windows7

Does anyone knows how can we install TigerVNC on Windows7-64 bit using
command line (batch script)?
We have set of tools used in small group and its easy to have silent
install option using command line (without installation GUI)

Can't connect from linux to windows using ssh

Hi there,

I have a situation where a vnc client from windows can connect to a vnc 
server on windows (both win7). But from a Linux client (Fedora 14 or 15) 
it won't work.

The windows server runs Tightvnc and freesshd. On the windows client, 
both the native and the java tightvnc viewer works. tigervnc also works 
fine. I use putty to create the ssh tunnels

On the linux client, I tried tigervnc (which is the one included by 
Fedora) and the tigervnc java viewer, both failed. tigervnc (vncviewer 
command) fails with:

  CConn:       connected to host localhost port 5900
  main:        End of stream

The Java tightvnc viewer gives EOFException

I know the ssh connection works on linux because I can type cmd.exe 
commands. If I use the native ssh client (openssh) the ssh connections 
is terminated when any vnc client tried to connect with errror:

buffer_get_ret: trying to get more bytes 4 than in buffer 0
buffer_get_string_ret: cannot extract length

But if I use putty on linux the ssh connection keeps working (I can 
still type commands) but the vnc clients won't work on the tunnel.

Any hints?

[]s, Fernando Lozano

TigerVNC 1.2.0 - Seems like a huge step backwards from a usability and functionality perspective?

Hi all:

I immediately hit these when upgrading: (Windows 7 / 64-bit)

1) My .vnc files no longer work. And it doesn't seem like I can "Save" 
options any more? For those of us who use VNC heavily, and have several 
of these files to maintain settings, this is a huge step backwards.

2) The logo for vncviewer.exe is missing, which also means that the .vnc 
files all looked busted. Is this a bug?

3) Full screen mode now displays scroll bars cutting off the screen and 
making it inconvenient to scroll around. It's always been excellent at 
this - panning to reach the edges instead of scrollbars, especially when 
it only needed an extra pixel or so (I think TigerVNC itself loses a 
pixel somehow?). With scroll bars, the interface is effectively unusable 
for those of us who use VNC as a remote desktop. Sure, I could make the 
resolution of the target display 1344x766 or some odd value and lose 
pixels... but why?

I checked the mailing list archives, and I don't think I understand. The 
release announcement for TigerVNC 1.2.0 looks empty except for "Enjoy!" 
What is the content of the release?

Who asked for these "features"? Removing basic functions that have been 
around forever? Seems like a recipe for upset users?

I did notice some menu changes... but they also seem "broken". The 
"tabs" don't really go down. The actual body may look a little nicer, 
but since it's missing functionality now, the overall result is negative.

Is this the development model we should expect? Why should I use or 
recommend to others to use TigerVNC going forwards?

Sorry if this sounds harsh. I don't get it. I hoped to come to the 
mailing list and see in the archives explanations for why, but did not 
find anything.

My problems immediately fixed by down grading to TigerVNC 1.1.0. From my 
perspective, TigerVNC 1.1.0 is nicer than TigerVNC 1.2.0.

Thanks for your attention.

Fed 16 tigervnc and androidVNC via ConnectBot SSH forwarding?

Is TigerVNC server compatible with androidVNC client?  Is anyone 
actually doing this forwarded through ConnectBot SSH?  Thanks.

I have a Fedora 16 server running TigerVNC which I can vncviewer 
(v1.1.0) into from a Fedora 15 box using -via.  That all works fine.  
But I cannot access it from androidVNC 0.5.0.  Nor can I get to it from 
Mint's Vinagre 3.2.1 Remote Desktop Viewer, again SSH tunneling to port 
5901.

I've been unable to find anything via Google that suggests any problems 
or solutions.  Any suggestions or sample settings would be much 
appreciated.  Thanks!

Re: build under ubuntu

You are missing my point.  The instructions in BUILDING.txt are an
example that is known to work with only one platform (Red Hat Enterprise
Linux 6 and some later versions of Fedora.)  The "problem" is that you
need instructions specific to Ubuntu, and that requires knowledge of
that system that most of us don't have.  The only person who could
answer your questions is someone who has generated VNC packages for
Ubuntu in the past.

I would suggest looking for a RealVNC package for your version of Ubuntu
and looking at the scripts used to generate that package.  That would
give you at least a reasonable starting point for coming up with an
appropriate set of configure arguments.
