This functionality is not available to Handheld PC users and will not be covered in this article. For security we recommend that you disable it. It allows you to automatically force the remote workstation to lock or log-out when the VNC session is terminated. For example if you only want people to be able to observe the remote workstation then you can disable input from the remote system.
You can also prevent input from the local machine if you don't wish people physically at the workstation to use the PC while you are connected. Choosing to disable the Desktop Wallpaper will speed up the desktop navigation especially over slower connections or on older HPC's.
When a client is connected to VNC the icon will have a black background. Latest Forum Posts '; document. Log-In Register. Comment On This Article. Comments are no longer available due to abuse.

VNC clients and servers from different companies often work together as well, though some companies develop proprietary versions.
It is recommended you check with your PC vendor for any available driver and other software updates and install them. For PCs running Windows 7 or older, it is also recommended to install the DFMirage Driver , available from the same Download page, for improved performance and responsiveness.
As an application, TightVNC is started either manually or automatically after user login, and runs only for that user. As a service, TightVNC starts automatically when Windows boots, and runs no matter which user is logged in.
By default, TightVNC will capture and broadcast all displays on a system as a single feed. Userful by default will fit this feed into a canvas. To capture only select displays, or portions of display s , it is required to specify the display geometry you wish to capture:. By default, VNC listens for incoming connections on port It also listens on port for Java-based users, which can be accessed by clients from a web browser.
In this example, I have set up the VNC server to run on port For the rest of the settings, the defaults should suffice. You should now see a window showing the remote computer. You can also make a shortcut for this connection. Now that you have 1 an SSH server running on a unique non-standard port and 2 a VNC server running on a unique port, you can access your VNC server securely from a remote computer.
If your ISP does not provide you with a fixed static IP address, you can still access your network, but one more step will be required. Whenever your IP address changes, the new information is communicated to the dyndns. In this manner, you can always access your remote computer by domain name remotecomptuer. This example assumes the the public IP address of the remote network is Note that we have set up the SSH server to run on non-standard port port 22 is the default and that VNC is running on port is the default.
One ssh client is the one included with Cygwin. From the Cygwin command line, you would enter the following command to ssh to your remote computer on port and establish a tunnel on port for VNC traffic:.
As before, you can create a shortcut to your secure VNC session. By the way ssh do you have to fix the SSH session timeout or VNCing will have periodic traffic to keep ssh alive without timeout.
I wonder if I keep the vnc session idle for sometime would the ssh timeout and kill my vnc client??? Please comment. Nevermind i fixed the problem.
I specified the public ip address in the tunnel setting of putty instead of the LAN ip. I set up Cygwin on my Windows 7 64 bit laptop on home. I get a window that says status: connection established then about 10 seconds later another windows pops up and says connection closed.
Any ideas? FYI: I tried this while I was on the same network at home from a separate computer and it worked. When I put that computer at home on a different network, I encountered the same problem as I did in the office. Everything worked as you described except until I connected to my office vpn. I tried port 22 and non 22 for sshd server but it is not working.
