Whose version of VNC is this?

We are currently using UltraVNC (http://ultravnc.sourceforge.net/) as that was the fastest most stable and best featured I could find, but I'm always interested in compatible alternatives.

---

Oh, UltraVNC is better now? I tried it some months ago but the stability and bugs were far too overwhelming to even consider using it. Might give it a try again

The next version of TightVNC seems very interesting too (v.1.30), features file transfers etc too.

I selected UltraVNC a couple of years ago to maintain compatibility and because it was the best of those that I trialled (Ultra, Tight and Real - the original was no longer being developed).

We use it as the primary remote access support tool on some 300-400 remote PCs across various sized WAN links. We don't use the video driver hook as the speed is acceptable and it was too experimental when I started the exercise.

I've not experienced any problems with it so far.

When you were looking at it, did you try the version from the stable branch or the bleeding edge branch?

I've no particular loyalty to UltraVNC - as I say I'm always interested in alternatives and if there is a good reason to swap I will. Might get someone else to change the clients though

You ment between OS´s, no? cause you can use UltraVNC in a Real VNC enviroment (as far as I had tested).
I am gonna try to change towards Ultra.

By the way, did you hide the server propeties in each pc from the Tray Icon. Cause I coudnt do that and cannot find out how to do it.

thanks.
