My company resently moved from teamviewer to TightVNC.

 

In teamviewer you could install a Host as a service, and you could connect to that computer any time of the day without any user accepting in the other end.

But how do you do that with TightVNC, I can install a service, but there still have to be a user in the other end to accept.

 

I'm using this command line

 

msiexec /i tightvnc-2.7.1-setup-64bit.msi /quiet /norestartADDLOCAL=Server, SERVER_REGISTER_AS_SERVICE=1, SERVER_ADD_FIREWALL_EXCEPTION=1, SET_USEVNCAUTHENTICATION=1 VALUE_OF_USEVNCAUTHENTICATION=1 SET_PASSWORD=1, VALUE_OF_PASSWORD=xxxxx SET_VIEWONLYPASSWORD=1, VALUE_OF_VIEWONLYPASSWORD=xxxxxSET_USECONTROLAUTHENTICATION=1, VALUE_OF_USECONTROLAUTHENTICATION=1 SET_CONTROLPASSWORD=1 VALUE_OF_CONTROLPASSWORD=”xxxxx”

 

I need it to grant me access when i connect, without a user sitting at the computer.

 

Thanks :)

We use this to push VNC out to client computers and haven't had any problem remoting in without a user prompt.

msiexec /i "tightvnc-2.7.10-setup-64bit.msi" /quiet /norestart ADDLOCAL=Server SET_USEVNCAUTHENTICATION=1 VALUE_OF_USEVNCAUTHENTICATION=1 SET_PASSWORD=1 VALUE_OF_PASSWORD=XXXX SET_VIEWONLYPASSWORD=1 VALUE_OF_VIEWONLYPASSWORD=XXXX SET_USECONTROLAUTHENTICATION=1VALUE_OF_USECONTROLAUTHENTICATION=1 SET_CONTROLPASSWORD=1 VALUE_OF_CONTROLPASSWORD=XXXX

Thank you, :)

 

I think i found the problem.

We had a VALUE_OF_IPACCESSCONTROL="XXXXXX"

In our commandline, as soon as i delete it, it worked. :)

This is really helpful.

How are you deploying this? Are you putting this into a batch script?

 

I am looking to deploy VNC to my client stations, they are all Windows 10. Currently using RDC which is far from ideal as it is kicking off active users when I log in and I have no idea if they are on or not when I attempt to connect.

Thanks.

We deploy using MDT (same as all our software) standard application deployment.

But I see no reason it wouldn't work as part of a batch script.

Hi, thanks for your reply. Have never used MDT before.

Do you add it to the image you make of the OS, or is it something that could be added after?

We use task sequences that vanilla install windows and then add in our apps and customisations as "post install" tasks.

So VNC (along with all our apps) are installed after. The install command above can be run on a computer at any time.
