VNC help

Crazy_J · 15-September-04, 11:21 PM

I need a VNC program that will run on WIn2k and this VNC program must support dual display. I have been searching for one without success. Does anyone know of a VNC program that can accomplish this task?

TightVNC. Dunno about the dual monitors part, but, it's free.

I dont know of anything that supports dual monitor - but exactly what do you mean by dual monitor support. You want to run dual monitor on the VNCed rig as if your setting in front of it.......or you want to be able to toss the VNC window up on one monitor and use your rig on the other.

Would this work? It would be useful if you could clarify what dual-screen setup you have in mind...

I use tightVNC 1.9 on all my servers from NT right on up to 2k3, in addition to administrative terminal services (2000+). I'm not sure what you mean by dual-display though...

I have a PC with two video cards. Each video card is connected to a projector therefore eliminating the need for a monitor. My current VNC program is tightVNC and this does not support dual display. I would like a VNC program that would be able to toggle to the other screen and vice versa.

This is an example of dual display

I use WinVNC and an app called UltraMon (for dual monitor greatness) - I can flip my VNC program to the other monitor and then make it full screen - thus having one machine full screen on the left monitor (main rig) and the second machine full screen on the right monitor via VNC (second rig).......it that what you want to do???

That is exactly what I want to to do. Rep is coming your way.

Thanks.

Another program you might want to try out. A modified VNC client and host that supports dual monitors. Linky
