Lightweight, Fast and Reliable Remote Control Software
TightVNC is a remote control software application derived from the popular VNC software.With TightVNC, you can see the desktop of a remote machine and control it with your local mouse and keyboard, just like you would do it sitting in the front of that computer. TightVNC is:· useful in administration, tech support, education, and for many other purposes· cross-platform, available for Windows and Unix, with Java client included· compatible with standard VNC software, conforming to RFB protocol specificationWith TightVNC, you can: · cut your expenses and save your time on traveling· help your friends and family to solve problems with their computers remotely· make sure nothing wrong is happening on your computers when you are away Here are some key features of "TightVNC":
· File transfers in versions for Windows. You can updload files from your local machine to the TightVNC Server, and download files from the server to your computer. · Support for video mirror driver (Windows 2000 and above). TightVNC Server can use DFMirage mirror driver to detect screen updates and grab pixel data in a very efficient way, saving processor cycles for other applications. · Scaling of the remote desktop (viewer for Windows and Java viewer). You can view the remote desktop in whole on a screen of smaller size, or you can zoom in the picture to see the remote screen in more details. · Efficient "Tight" encoding with optional JPEG compression. New Tight encoding is optimized for slow and medium-speed connections and thus generates much less traffic as compared to traditional VNC encodings. Unlike other encodings, Tight encoding is configurable via compression levels and JPEG image quality setting. · Enhanced Web browser access. TightVNC includes a greatly improved Java viewer with full support for Tight encoding, 24-bit color mode, and more. The Java viewer applet can be accessed via built-in HTTP server like in the standard VNC. · Support for two passwords, full-control and read-only. The server allows or disallows remote keyboard and mouse events depending on which password was used for authentication. · Automatic SSH tunneling on Unix. The Unix version of TightVNC Viewer can tunnel connections via SSH automatically using local SSH/OpenSSH client installation. What's New in This Release: [ read full changelog ]
· Server for Windows: Fixed a bug which prevented file transfers from working properly under Windows 2000. · Server for Windows: Introducing new "error handler" which allows saving memory dumps on critical errors. · Server for Windows: In systems with swapped left and right mouse buttons, remote mouse events will be adjusted accordingly. As a result, the remote mouse should work just like the local one. · Server for Windows: Fixed a number of problems led to errors on setting service passwords from the installer. · Server for Windows: Not allowing to enter administrative passwords longer than eight characters. This limitation is caused by using standard DES-based VNC-compatible authentication. Previous versions used only the first eight characters anyway but it was possible to enter longer passwords and that could confuse users who did not know about the limitation. · Server for Windows: Fixed a problem with injecting lowercase characters when CapsLock was on on the server.
