systeembeheerder systeembeheerder Fresh Scripter Registered: 2002-04-14 Posts: 26 Loc: The Netherlands	Hallo people, I'm working with WinVNC and now i want make some change about the password. How can with kix change the password in the registry? Also i want to have i script for on authorized access to VNC. Because by VNC you dont have to anser a question if people can view or take over your screen. Is it possible to create script witch shows the standard desktop by the viewer site so a fake screen. And i can normally going on with my work and they will not see than for example my mail this is privacy. Or is it possible that we must confirm that someone else can see my screen or take over my screen. Thanks.

Then install it on a dummy PC, change the password and search the registry for password or something like that (something with ORL I think.) Then copy/writedown the password's value and write in your script a line which writes the data in the registry (with writevalue). Since the password is encrypted you can't just enter the password in the registry, you'd have to use the encrypted data. I'm not sure what you're trying to accomplish in the second part . Can you be more specific? PS. If it doesn't work you could also mail me (ook in het Nederlands). Afterwards we can put the solution to the board. _________________________ Greetz, Patrick Rutten - We'll either find a way or make one... - Knowledge is power; knowing how to find it is more powerful... - Problems don't exist; they are challenges...

I posted an example script some time ago to do it which set various parameters including the password. I don't think that it is possible to pop up a message warning you if someone is trying to connect - it's not really what VNC was developed for.

Much better from a security standpoint. _________________________ How to ask questions the smart way <-----------> Before you ask

As far as I know you can't turn off this feature. [ 03. September 2002, 20:37: Message edited by: BoxKite ] _________________________ Box FACTA NON VERBA

Radimus Radimus Moderator Registered: 2000-01-06 Posts: 5187 Loc: Tampa, FL	there was discussion on bell labs site regarding this 'feature'. They made sure to point out that this was an admin tool, not a potential 'spying' tool. _________________________ How to ask questions the smart way <-----------> Before you ask

BoxKite BoxKite Da Box Registered: 2000-05-17 Posts: 282 Loc: Vacaville,CA,USA	I had some managers who didn't like the idea of me having the ability to spy on their computer even though there is a visual indicator. I simply told them to change the password to anything; they didn't even have to remember the thing. I told them that anytime they needed my help all they had to do was change the password to something simple, let me know, let me do my work, then change the password again. That placated their fears. _________________________ Box FACTA NON VERBA

Rocco Capra Rocco Capra Hey THIS is FUN Registered: 2002-04-01 Posts: 380 Loc: Mansfield Ohio	YES YOU CAN PROMT THE USER FOR PERMISSION!! From the Documentation... AuthHosts The AuthHosts setting is, unlike the other settings, a REG_SZ string. It is used to specify a set of IP address templates which incoming connections must match in order to be accepted. By default, the template is empty and connections from all hosts are accepted. The template is of the form: +[ip-address-template] ?[ip-address-template] -[ip-address-template] In the above, [ip-address-template] represents the leftmost bytes of the desired stringified IP address. For example, +158.97 would match both 158.97.12.10 and 158.97.14.2. Multiple match terms may be specified, delimited by the ":" character. Terms appearing later in the template take precedence over earlier ones. e.g. -:+158.97: would filter out all incoming connections except those beginning with 158.97. Terms beginning with the "?" character are treated by default as indicating hosts from whom connections must be accepted at the server side via a dialog box. The QuerySetting option determines the precise behaviour of the three AuthHosts options. Local machine-specific setting. QuerySetting The QuerySetting allows individual users to tailor the degree of paranoia expressed by the per-machine AuthHosts setting. It is a DWORD value ranging from zero (maximum availability) to four (maximum security). The following table indicates how the value affects the AuthHosts behaviour: 0 - +:Accept, ?:Accept, -:Query 1 - +:Accept, ?:Accept, -:Reject 2 - +:Accept, ?:Query, -:Reject [Default] 3 - +:Query, ?:Query, -:Reject 4 - +:Query, ?:Reject, -:Reject By default, value 2 (Obey AuthHosts) will be assumed. Local & global per-user setting. QueryTimeout The QueryTimeout setting indicates the number of seconds for which the Accept Connection dialog (see AuthHosts and QuerySetting options) will be displayed before rejecting the incoming connection automatically. Local & global per-user setting. What the registry looks like... [HKEY_LOCAL_MACHINE\SOFTWARE\ORL\WinVNC3\Default] "QuerySetting"=dword:00000003 "QueryTimeout"=dword:00000014 "AuthHosts"="?xxx.xxx,?xxx.xxx" <- Your networks IP address[s] HTH Rocco _________________________ I Love this board!! -------------------- My DEV PC is running KIX 4.22 WINXP Pro
