REQUEST: UltraVNC connect to client pc via fog interface...

[Greg Plamondon]

can someone with some plugin coding ability put together a plugin that adds the connect to pc via UltraVNC from the fog web GUI?
I saw this in the WIKI but its fairly old.

While I can’t help at the moment with the coding, but I wonder can you connect to a computer’ VNC interface via the web interface with this url?

http://<host_name>:5800

The <host_name> should be replaced with a host system name you might see in FOG.

@Greg-Plamondon I’ve never used UltraVNC SC (single click) myself. Have you? Seems like it’s not being maintained or kept up to date much. Last version from 2015…

No, I just get a white page. I think that’s trying to use Java.

This feature, while untested for a time, already exists as a hook.

Set the active flag to true and you should have what you were looking for

I realize that this will sound harsh, but if this bit doesn’t work, what the FOG Wizards can do will not matter. Look at your settings you may need to enable the web interface. We use TightVNC in my organization and when I access that page I just got a white page with a link to the tightvnc website. We use the vnc viewer so I don’t know if the web ui was ever configured.
