Hi everyone,

Where can I obtain "howto for making your own setup.exe file. You can use this in a logon script to install VNC to your target 9x workstations."?

Looks like I'd deleted that file as it got such low traffic. Still, if you find it useful, I'll put it back here.

I noticed you say you haven't worked with MACs. Well, since OS X, the kernel is similar to the Linux kernel.
VNC-wise, the two apps I like for OS X:

Chicken of the VNC - free/open VNC client
http://sourceforge.net/projects/cotvnc/

OSXvnc - free/open VNC server
http://sourceforge.net/projects/osxvnc/

Thanks for the links!

I'm am using fastpush with ultravnc. I have incorporated the contents of VNCHooks_Settings.reg from an installation of ultravnc into machine.ini. I am successful except the file transfer does not work. If I then run VNCHooks_Settings.reg on the machine that I have loaded with fastpush the file transfer works. What am I missing?

If you copied the contents of the .REG file into the .INI then it won't work. The format is very different. You would be better off setting the values by imported the REG file into your test computer and then using REG to export those values to an INI file. You can then cut and paste that with the standard MACHINE.INI file. That should do it.

Hi, I've started looking at using your script. I was wondering though, to save 'victims' having something to play with, I was hoping that I could cut down the number of shortcuts that are installed. At present, there are 3 sub-folders under 'RealVNC' which are VNC Server - Service Mode, VNC Server - User Mode, VNC Viewer. I know there is the set command to not install any shortcuts, but ideally I would like to have just the VNC Server - Service Mode present, along with My Details.

All of the icons are created by the section entitled: CREATE A BATCH FILE TO CREATE SHORTCUTS ON REMOTE PC. The section you're interested in starts with the line:

if "%real4%"=="yes"

From there on there are some MD command (which make the folders up, natch). Just pop a REM statement at the front of each line that you don't want an icon creating. That should do you.

Lastly, and by no means least, Amit Keynan wrote in offering to share his HTA wrapper for Fastpush. Well, he's kindly supplied a copy and here it it. Use it at your own risk. As I didn't write this funky app, I'm not offering any support on it. :-)
