skeep VNC console

[FatBoy]

Hi Guys,

 

I found a great piece of software that does everything you want in a tin for deploying, controlling and viewing Ultra VNC on computers all for FREE

 

It also lets you manage computers and every time you open it the software dynamically updates all the computers on your domain, unlike others I have used in the past.

 

It's a quick and easy install and takes seconds to setup

 

Try it out and let me know how you find it It's helped me a great deal :-)

 

Skeep VNC Console then click download which takes you to SourceForge.net: Files and grab it from there happy VNC-ing people

New version of skeep console (v1.1) is available that now is integrated with AD and has more options when deploying VNC. You can remove the start menu icons, hide it from the tray and install the viewer for admins

Anyone else used it, what do they think?

I get several errors when trying to use it about path not found in the script.

 

Looks great though.

Script Error

 

Line 160

Char 2

Path not found

Code : 0

 

URL File:///C:\program%20files/skeep/Skeep%20VNC%20console/Bin/Deploy.hta

 

Do you want to run the script

[plexer]

Jordans suggestion appears to have fixed it.

Can you only deploy to one machine at a time?

Can you only deploy to one machine at a time?

 

Ben

 

no i have deployed to approx 21 at the same time it just opens up new cmd windows

[plexer]

How do you select multiple machines I can't see how?

 

Ben

[plexer]

Opening multiple windows seems a bit of a pain.

 

I've done 30+ machines with fastpush before which this uses, by using a text file containing computer names and a batch file with a for command.

 

Ben

[JOrdan01070]

the way i did multiple machines was hold down shift and select the machines

hi all,

 

Thought i would register and just say that the bug above should now be fixed in version 1.1.1.

 

Also I will look at opening just one window when deploying vnc in the next version.

 

In addition you can select multiple computers by holding the control key.

 

Thanks

Hi Skeep and welcome aboard.

 

Your tools looks great.

 

My admin laptop is not joined to the domain at the moment just wondering if there is a possibility of using some domain credentials somewhere in your app to get ad info then it could be run from any account as well.

Hi Guys

 

We have just deployed Skeep across our network and i have to say i'm impressed with it. The search feature is excellent.

 

I do have one problem though. When using the console on a Vista business laptop i have to keep refreshing everytime i do something.

 

Any thoughts?

Hi John,

 

I use Vista Business and don't have this problem.... so your saying you have to refresh every time you want to search for a computer

[Whisky]

Sorry i didn't explain myself very well.

 

The search feature appears to be fine.

 

it's when i connect to a computer and take control of it. For example if i click on the start menu nothing happens unless i press the refresh button, then if i wanted to click on all programs the all programs list would not appear until i press the refresh button.

 

It seems to be fine running from XP Pro just my laptop running Vista business (only one in school with Vista)

[FatBoy]

Sounds like a problem with VNC its self running on your laptop rather then a problem with the install/operation of the skeep VNC console.

 

Check this post out on the skeep vnc forum:howto deploy ultravnc 1.0.5.3 with the vnc console

 

This will update your vnc client and hopefully fix your problem

[Whisky]

Thank for that. Seems to have sorted it out.

[FatBoy]

Not a problem

[FatBoy]

Hi all,

 

Just thought I would let you know that a new version of the software is out (1.3), I'm using it and the new features work great. On another note the site moved and the forum has been lost so if you were registered you will have to again

Hi,

 

I just found Skeep and it looks promising. This thread seems to be active.

 

I have a test setup with server 2003 and Win XP pro sp3 both as virtual machines. The XPP is joined to the domain.

 

I installed Skeep 1.3 on the server. It is running IE6 and enhanced security is turned off.

 

Skeep finds the XPP machine when I search and manage, ping and the admin share all work. I click deploy and it errors out with an IE script error:

 

line 43, char 4

Error: The remote server machine does not exist or is unavailable 'GetObject'

Code 0

 

UPL file///c:\Program%20Files/Skeep/%20VNC%/20Console/bin/sync.hta

 

Any suggestions appreciated as to where to look.

 

Thanks

Hi Skeep, welcome to the forums.

 

Looks like a great Application, i have installed it on my Windows7 laptop, everything seem's to have installed ok except when you launch the app you get the error attached.

 

I will deploy it to a stack of machines tomorrow at work, and let you know how i get on. if it does work i'll give it some good testing and give you some feedback.

 

Many Thanks

 

James.
