Posted: Thu Jun 21, 2012 3:28 pm Post subject: vnc file reader from the browser |
|
|
Hello
I have access to vnc servers thru the web browser: there are vnc files on specific web page, example file:
| Code: |
[connection]
host=ucs01-bl2.company.com
port=6328
|
On windows such a file is automatically open by any typical vnc viewer (like Tight VNC viewer).
On my gentoo i have installed vncviewer but it does not work.
When i try to:
#vncviewer mycompany.vnc
window appears with the error "getaddrinfo: Name or Service not known"
This is some kind of bug, because hostname resolution is working fine. Maybe this vncviewer can not read this file format ?
Anyway - i am looking for any solution ? Do you know any vnc viewer which reads such a files ?
Thanx
Michal |

Given your example, try this:
| Code: |
vncviewer ucs01-bl2.company.com:6328
|
Let us know if that worked. |

it does not work, i have just black screen. TCP session is established.
I can connect using telnet.
I guess vncviewer is not compatible with my vnc server ?(but under windows openvnc can access without problem) |

| When you telnet to that port, what do you get back? It should be the RFB version string. You can then check your windows / openvnc version to make sure it's compatible. |

when i telnet i receive string:
On windows it works with TightVNC Viewer 2.5.1.
On gentoo i've tried
tightvnc 1.3.10-r1
tigervnc 1.1.0-r7
For both results were the same: black window appear with warning that authentication will be in plain text.
EDIT
I found the solution, i need vncviewer that supports ecnryption: ssvncviewer |
