Hi Please,

I would like to know if does anybody knows the registry entries to
disable VNC Server options like version 3, for example.

Regards,
Gustavo

Gustavo,

You can find the entries on your system by running Regedit
("Start\Run\regedit"), pressing F3 ("find"), and searching for VNC. This
should locate the keys you're looking for regardless of your flavor of
Windows. The keys/values are pretty self-explainatory.

Good luck!

Hi Chris,

The thing is, I've already checked my regedit, but in version 4, like version 3, there're no EXTRA entries, I mean, to lock down the options you must create some keys. In version 3 I could find them in VNC documentation (http://www.realvnc.com/winvnc.html) but it seems to not work with version 4.

I appreciate any help.

Regards,
Gustavo

Correct, as noted in the TightVNC documentation and others, WinVNC4 does not
support the "extra" settings that v3 did.

TightVNC does support them through adding them to the v3 settings directory
in the registry.

Gustavo,

The VNC Server Properties dialog is only accessible to Administrators under
VNC 4, so there is no separate VNC option to disable the menu item.

Chris,

Your statement is misleading. TightVNC and other projects based on VNC 3.3
have a number of settings accessible only via registry entries, termed
"Advanced Settings".

VNC 4 either provides settings through the GUI interfaces, or eliminates
them because they are no longer relevant. Only a couple of very low level
parameters remain purely registry-controlled.

The setting to which Gustavo refers is one of the no-longer-relevant ones.

Cheers,

James,

Thank you for your follow up. I did not notice which specific feature the
gentleman was looking for, I was referring only to how to find VNC's
registry entries - sorry for any confusion.

Thank you for your work, I'm looking forward to the Enterprise release.
