- Vista support:
- New Viewer Autoreconnect feature
- New WinVNC special startup modes and WinVNC autostop feature when necessary under Vista/XP FUS - CTRL-ALT-DEL using Viewer's "CAD" button should work
- FileTransfer window now allows files lists sorting by columns headers
- WinVNC now stores its config parameters into ultravnc.ini file (same directory as WinVNC.exe). This change was necessary for Vista/XP FUS. To use the registry instead, like in previous versions, do the following:
1.Before running the uvnc_service for the first time, create an ultravnc.ini file in the UltravNC 1.0.3 RC2 install directory
2.Add to this ultravnc.ini file the 2 following lines: [Admin] UseRegistry=1
- WinVNC contains bug fixes for connections init/stability issues (v1.0.2 Test2 patch code and more)
- Please note that DSMPlugin (MSRC4) does not work very well under Vista. The ARC4 plugin should work fine though

*The buildin winvnc service is replaced by an external service. Vista require an isolation between the service and the desktop application.
For security, applications started by a service, should by started as the same user as the desktop owner, this prevent other applcations trying to gain admin access via winvnc.

*v1.0.3 RC1 doesn't use any more the registry for option saving.
It was too complicated to get the registry permissions right, and because winvnc.exe needs to be started as system, password and ports could change if user and system have different settings
We are thinking about reserving the use of ultravnc.ini file for Vista only and keep the registry for others Windows versions. We could also support both modes.
Actually v1.0.3 with registry works under Vista but users must configure both WinVNC "default" and "User" settings even when then don't install the WinVNC service...
- WinVNC settings File: ultravnc.ini
- Location: same directory as winvnc.exe
- If you want to prevent normal users to change the file, you need to set restrictions on the write access of this file

*The viewer now autoreconnects when the desktop security changes or when the user login/logoff.
The default delay is 10s (no viewer screen refresh).
If the autoreconnect ever fails you still can manually reconnect and should be able to gain access to all (logon/screensaver/default/UAC) security desktops.

- Resizable FileTransfer window
- Improved cursor handling in viewer and javaviewer
- Improved Autoreconnect option in server
- Improved query-on-incoming-connection window in server
- MSLogon improvements
- MSLogon weak challenge vulnerability fix
NOTE: MSLogon backward compatibility is broken with versions
<= v1.0.1
Anyway, the new v1.0.2 viewer can use MSLogon with older servers
but a warning is displayed recommending server upgrade.
- Server and viewer logging functions vulnerability fix
- Server configuration: AlphaBlending, FTUserImpersonation and
LockWorkstation options are allowed depending on the OS
- MSRC4 DSM plugin v1.2.0 embedded into the setup
("plugin" subdirectory). The .dsm files must be manually copied
into the UltraVNC install directory, along Ultra binaries.
Many enhancements in this new plugin (session key salting, connection
still possible without key file...). Thanks Sean !
