- WinVNC Version History
- Version 3.3.2 (VNC Version 3.3.2, revision 6)
- Changes from revision 5:
- Fixed minor protocol non-compliance bug with regard to clients which fail to send
- SetPixelFormat messages.
- Fixed DOS-prompt polling under Windows 95. DOS boxes are now polled correctly.
- Version 3.3.2 (VNC Version 3.3.2, revision 5)
- Changes from revision 4:
- Prepared WinVNC for release.
- Fixed AuthRequired race condition.
- Fixed AutoPortSelect bug.
- Version 3.3.2 (VNC Version 3.3.2, revision 4)
- Changes from revision 3:
- Fixed a tray icon bug, in which the tray icon was being produced before the menu
- had been loaded.
- Replaced the thread package with the latest version, which fixes a few resource leaks.
- Mouse events are now produced to reflect those sent on the wire, regardless of whether
- the mouse buttons would locally be swapped by the OS. This means that left- or right-
- handedness is a client-side feature.
- Version 3.3.2 (VNC Version 3.3.2, revision 3)
- Changes from revision 2:
- SETTINGS REORGANIZED!
- The WinVNC registry settings have now been reorganized and improved to allow better
- control over individual user's capabilities when running it, whether as an application
- or as a service.
- Local machine settings are stored under HKEY_LOCAL_MACHINE/Software/ORL/WinVNC3
- Local per user settings are stored under HKEY_LOCAL_MACHINE/Software/ORL/WinVNC3/<username>
- Local default user settings are stored under HKEY_LOCAL_MACHINE/Software/ORL/WinVNC3/Default
- Local no-user settings are stored under HKEY_LOCAL_MACHINE/Software/ORL/WinVNC3/SYSTEM
- Global per user settings are stored under HKEY_CURRENT_USER/Software/ORL/WinVNC3
- These groups of settings have the following priority:
- 1. Machine settings are always read, from the machine settings location. Not overridable.
- 2. Default user settings are read.
- 3. Local-machine, per-user settings are read for the current user, or for SYSTEM if
- there is no current user. These override the Default settings.
- 4. If AllowProperties is not zero, the global per-user settings are read.
- These override both the Default settings & the local-machine, per-user settings.
- - Local Only, Machine Settings : DebugMode, DebugLevel, AllowLoopback,
- AuthRequired, ConnectPriority.
- - Local Only, Per User Settings : AllowShutdown, AllowProperties.
- - Local/Global, Per User Settings : SocketConnect, AutoPortSelect, PortNumber, Password,
- CORBAConnect, InputsEnabled, LockSetting, PollUnderCursor,
- PollForeground, PollFullScreen, OnlyPollConsole,
- OnlyPollOnEvent
- UPDATE ROUTINES FIXED!
- If a client chose to send multiple update requests to the server without waiting for
- the update data, then the server would only consider the last request. This behaviour
- was incorrect and has now been fixed. As a result, WinVNC will now work properly with
- the PalmVNC viewer.
- HTTP SERVER FIXED!
- The HTTP server section of WinVNC could end up listening on the wrong port number when
- automatic display number selection was in use. This is now fixed.
- MEMORY LEAK FIXED!
- A small memory leak in the WinNT side of the vncService::CurrentUser function has been fixed.
- Although the amount lost on each execution was small, the function is called often enough
- for this to cause problems over long periods of use.
- Established that the Ctrl-Alt-Del problem under NT 3.51 is because GetAsyncKeyState for
- ctrl and alt ALWAYS returns zero. Don't know why...
- Fixed a potential lockup when the Properties dialog is closed by the OS rather than by
- the Ok or Cancel buttons.
- Version 3.3.2 (VNC Version 3.3.2, revision 2)
- Changes from revision 1:
- CTRL-ALT-DEL IMPROVED!
- Ctrl-Alt-Del will now work both with the Delete key and with the keypad Del key, from
- Unix clients. Unix clients treat these two keys differently but Windows doesn't, so
- WinVNC now maps both on to VK_DELETE internally.
- MENU UPDATES IMPROVED!
- Extra hook code has been added to the VNCHooks library to catch the messages used to
- update the contents of pop-up menus, etc. As a result, menus tend to suffer much less
- from the characteristic colour-smear effect.
- Code is now in place to perform automatic locking or logoff of the workstation
- when all remote clients have closed, for security reasons. Unfortunately, the
- LockWorkstation function doesn't work on pre-NT5 machines, so only the logoff
- functionality is implemented.
- The new ConnectPriority option is available, on a per-machine basis. The
- HKEY_LOCAL_MACHINE/Software/ORL/WinVNC3/ConnectPriority
- setting can take one of three values:
- 0 - new, non-shared incoming connections kick off existing ones.
- 1 - all incoming connections are treated as shared, regardless of the -shared viewer option.
- 2 - new, non-shared incoming connections will be refused if a current connection exists.
- Automatic display number selection is now available. This option is set through the WinVNC
- properties dialog. When this option is used, the display number parameter in the dialog
- is ignored and the display number to use is instead allocated on the fly by WinVNC.
- Version 3.3.2 (VNC Version 3.3.2, revision 1)
- Changes from base 3.3.2 release:
- PALETTE-BASED CLIENTS SUPPORTED!
- Clients which request 8-bit palette-based data are now supported by WinVNC.
- Palette-based clients will get the best results from 8-bit palette mode
- servers, due to the way in which truecolour is culled into 8-bit palettes.
- svncviewer will now work with 8-bit WinVNC desktops as well as Xvnc ones.
- LOGGING SUPPORTED!
- Run-time logging of all internal debug messages is now supported. Log data
- may be output to a file or a console window (or the MSVC debugger if the
- program was compiled with debugging active.)
- Two registry keys under HKEY_LOCAL_MACHINE/Software/ORL/WinVNC3 are used:
- DebugMode indicates which logging methods to use.
- [1 = MSVC debugger]
- 2 = Output to log file Winvnc.log in the WinVNC directory
- 4 = Output to a console window, displayed on-screen
- Any combination of the above values may be used.
- DebugLevel indicates how much debug information to present. Any positive
- integer is valid. Zero indicates that no debugging information should be
- produced and is the default.
- Loopback (local-machine) connections to WinVNC will now be allowed if the
- HKEY_LOCAL_MACHINE/Software/ORL/WinVNC3/AllowLoopback registry entry is set
- to 1. The default is 0.
- Connections may now be made to WinVNC servers without requiring authentication
- if the HKEY_LOCAL_MACHINE/Software/ORL/WinVNC3/AuthRequired registry entry is
- set to 0. The default is 1.
- Microsoft Developer Studio configurations are included (but not tested) for
- Alpha NT, to make compilations for this platform more straightforward.
- CopyRect is now handled differently and tends to give better results when
- windows are dragged around the screen.
- All notifications of potential updates to the screen are cached into a vncRegion
- object in the vncDesktop thread and are only flushed to clients immediately
- before TriggerUpdate is called, to improve performance.
- Added a delay when the -kill option is used, to give the running copy time to quit.
- Fixed a CopyRect-related bug which caused windows to scroll oddly when dragged
- partially off the left or top of the screen.
- Version 3.3.2 (VNC Version 3.3.2)
- Release version.
- Version 3.3.1 (VNC Version 3.3, revision 20a)
- Changes from revision 19:
- WinVNC now returns explanatory message text to the viewer when an incoming
- connection is refused because of an empty Password field or a local-loopback
- connection.
- Mouse movements are now pre-processed by the Desktop handler and only passed to
- the Client handlers immediately before an update is triggered, resulting in less
- overhead and therefore lower latency.
- If a client requests the CopyRect encoding in the list of encodings it supports
- then WinVNC will now use the CopyRect primitive when doing simple tasks like
- dragging windows. This still has some flaws in it but generally improves performance.
- Updated the Java classes exported by WinVNC to include the Send-Ctrl-Alt-Del button.
- Added a "-about" option, which will cause an _already running_ copy of WinVNC to
- display its About box, making it easier to check that you have the latest version!
- Added version information to the VNCHooks Dynamic Link Library. This can be viewed
- selecting the properties dialog for the vnchooks.dll file.
- Version 3.3.1 (VNC Version 3.3, revision 19)
- Changes from revision 17:
- A bug in the new region culling routine was fixed.
- Version 3.3.1 (VNC Version 3.3, revision 17)
- Changes from revision 16:
- WIN-NT & WIN-95:
- MS-DOS applications can now by typed into! Thanks to Gur Stavi for pointing
- out that WinVNC didn't previously generate keyboard scancodes for key events.
- This means that the COMMAND.COM and EDIT programs, for example, may now be
- used through VNC.
- Lookup-table based colour translations are now incorporated into WinVNC.
- This means an increase in memory usage but delivers a noticable performance
- boost on most screen formats.
- 1, 4 and 8 bit palette-based local displays are now handled directly by
- WinVNC, resulting in a significant performance boost, although there are
- currently problems with the palette layout being confused in places.
- More intelligent culling of unchanged regions of the screen from the list of
- rectangles to be sent has been implemented. Generally, this isn't noticable
- but over low-bandwidth links, it should have a significant effect.
- WM_ENDSESSION is handled properly for full system shutdown.
- WM_DISPLAYCHANGE is now handled, so that when the display resolution changes,
- all remote VNC users are disconnected, to prevent corrupt display updates.
- The mouse cursor rendered to VNC clients is now correct most of the time.
- When installing WinVNC as a service, quotes are now placed around the
- executable's name, to avoid problems if there are whitespace characters
- in the path. (Common because of installing to "program filesorlvnc")
- The command-line options available have changed slightly:
- -run Causes WinVNC to run normally & ignore rest of command-line.
- -install Installs the WinVNC service and continues reading the command-line.
- -remove Removes the WinVNC service and continues reading the command-line.
- -settings Tells a running copy of WinVNC to show its Properties box.
- -kill Kills a running copy of WinVNC.
- If no options are given then WinVNC runs normally.
- Multiple option may be given, so, for example, to upgrade from a running copy
- if WinVNC to a new one, you could use:
- WinVNC_new -remove -install
- which will stop & remove the old copy & install the new one, or
- WinVNC_new -kill -run
- which will stop the running copy & run the new version normally.
- The Java viewer class files have been updated. The new classes are slightly more
- compatible with borderline Java VMs.
- Deferred update messages are no longer removed from the application's message queue
- behind it's back, hopefully resulting in more reliable behaviour & fewer lock-ups.
- The screen-saver is now not disabled when WinVNC is running in service mode and a
- connection is made, to avoid a potential race condition. This will be handled better
- in a future revision.
- WIN-NT ONLY:
- When running as a system service, WinVNC no longer disconnects all remote
- VNC connections whenever the current desktop changes.
- Corrected some problems with shift-key release code confusing Windows NT.
- WIN-95 ONLY:
- WM_USERCHANGED is handled, so that when no user is logged in, the
- machine-local password is used, otherwise the user's own VNC password and
- settings are used.
- (This assumes that Windows 95 is set to Multiple User Profile mode)
- Under Windows 95, WinVNC running in service mode no longer crashes when
- told to stop by the -kill or -remove options.
- The main text area of the Windows 95 console will now be polled by WinVNC
- properly when the Poll Console Windows Only option is set.
- Version 3.3.1 (VNC Version 3.3, revision 16)
- Changes from revision 15:
- The Revision 15 build was broken due to file timestamp corruption.
- Revision 16 is a complete re-build.
- Version 3.3.1 (VNC Version 3.3, revision 15)
- Changes from revision 13:
- WIN-NT & WIN-95:
- WinVNC will now run as a service on both Windows NT and Windows 95.
- Running WinVNC with the -install command-line option will install it into the system
- service control manager and set it to auto-run on bootup. The -remove option will stop
- the service if necessary and will then remove it.
- WIN-95 : winvnc -install will cause the service to run immediately.
- WIN-NT : winvnc -install will install the service into the manager but not start it.
- To allow the per-machine settings for WinVNC to be changed even when WinVNC is running as
- a service, the "-settings" option will cause the service to pop-up the properties dialog.
- A bug which often caused the entire screen to be transmitted twice to a connecting
- client is now fixed.
- The general Shift, Alt and Control-related bugs, affecting non-UK/US keyboard layouts in
- particular, are now corrected, with one important exception, mentioned in the NOTES
- section below.
- WIN-NT ONLY:
- Ctrl-Alt-Del can be simulated by WinVNC if a client sends it, allowing users to log on
- and off and to lock the workstation remotely.
- WIN-95 ONLY:
- Shift, Alt and Control were broken in Revision 13, since Windows 95 cannot distinguish
- left and right shift keys at all. This is now fixed.
- NOTES:
- When typing into an application set to use keyboard layout A, using WinVNC run with
- keyboard layout B, problems may be experienced because of WinVNC setting the wrong Shift
- key states to generate particular characters. As long as only one keyboard layout is used
- consistently across all applications, this shouldn't be a problem.
- Version 3.3.1 (VNC Version 3.3, revision 13)
- Changes from revision 12:
- The Caps-Lock, Num-Lock and Scroll-Lock keys are now correctly disabled whenever a new
- client connects, if that client has keyboard input enabled.
- Left and right versions of the Shift, Alt and Control keys can now be distinguished.
- The right and middle mouse buttons can now be set to trigger updates, although by default
- these options are not used.
- Version 3.3.1 (VNC Version 3.3, revision 12)
- Changes from revision 10:
- It is now no longer possible to accept unauthenticated incoming connections.
- If WinVNC fails to access the local root window then any remote connection will be refused.
- Version 3.3.1 (VNC Version 3.3, revision 10)
- Changes from revision 9:
- Black-background initial update bug is now fixed.
- Border redrawing bug is now fixed.
- Version 3.3.1 (VNC Version 3.3, revision 9)
- Changes from revision 8:
- Local connections to WinVNC servers are now filtered out.
- The OMNIthread package is now included as part of the WinVNC source distribution.
- The VTypes header file is now included in the WinVNC source distribution.
- WM_NCPAINT messages are hooked, resulting in better updates of window borders.
- Version 3.3.1 (VNC Version 3.3, revision 8)
- Changes from revision 5:
- The resource leak while rendering the mouse pointer has been fixed.
- The WinVNC tray icon changes colour when there is a remote connection.
- An Apply button has been added to the Properties dialog so that it can be used as the main
- WinVNC window on Windows NT 3.51 (or any other system without a system tray.)
- The Non-CORBA installer now generates an uninstall option properly.
- WinVNC may now be run in a view-only mode, in which remote users have no control.
- Version 3.3.1 (VNC Version 3.3, revision 5)
- Changes from revision 4:
- The machine name is now converted to lowercase to get the desktop name.
- The CORBA control object is properly removed from the Naming Service on exit.
- Version 3.3.1 (VNC Version 3.3, revision 4)
- Changes from revision 1:
- WinVNC now warns if no password has been set for the current user.
- Version 3.3.1 (VNC Version 3.3, revision 1)
- Changes from version 3.05:
- WinVNC now listens on a socket for incoming HTTP connections and produces HTML accordingly.
- This allows the server to be connected to from any web browser that supports Java, without
- any plug-ins or other software having to be installed on the client system.
- The server now copes gracefully with the absence of a valid CORBA setup and warns the user.
- Any previous, running instance of WinVNC is detected, to prevent further instances from
- running.
- The new, DES-based authentication scheme is used. This results in incompatibility with VNC
- clients using version 3.2 or lower of the protocol. To avoid this problem, connect via the
- HTTP interface, which provides the correct version of the Java viewer. Version 3.3+ based
- clients will handle the new scheme correctly.
- Shared VNC client connections are now fully supported.
