VNC by default uses TCP port 5900+N, [6] [7] where N is the display number (usually :0 for a physical display). Several implementations also start a basic HTTP server on port 5800+ N to provide a VNC viewer as a Java applet , allowing easy connection through any Java-enabled web-browser.
RealVNC is a company that provides remote access software. Their VNC Connect software consists of a server (VNC Server) and client (VNC Viewer) application, which exchange data over the RFB protocol to allow the Viewer to control the Server's screen remotely.
The VNC protocol expresses mouse button state in a single byte, as binary up/down. This limits the number of mouse buttons to eight (effectively 7 given convention of button 0 meaning "disabled"). Many modern mice enumerate 9 or more buttons, leading to forward/back buttons having no effect over RFB. A "GII" extension solves this problem.
Maximum simultaneous connections: number of clients connected to the same session Screen blanking : the ability to prevent the user of the host/server from viewing what is currently being displayed on the screen while a remote user is connected.
UltraVNC is the result of the merger of Vdacc-VNC started by Rudi De Vos in 1999 and eSVNC started by Sam in 2002. [1] UltraVNC is developed in the C, C++, and Java programming languages. Since release 1.0.6.4, UltraVNC server can work as a Windows service under User Account Control (UAC).
The initial versions of the XRDP project relied on a local VNC server installation that had to be present alongside the program, in order to relay the graphics and controls between the user and the server [7] (known as the "VNC forwarding mode"). However, this mode is currently not recommended to use anymore, due to its slow performance.
TightVNC is a free and open-source remote desktop software server and client application for Linux and Windows.A server for macOS is available under a commercial source code license only, without SDK or binary version provided. [3]
Second, the VNC viewer may treat the scratch region in ways that confuse the user, for example displaying it to the user or automatically panning down into it if the mouse reaches the bottom of the real screen. The Unix VNC viewer in SSVNC automatically hides the scratch region. Finally, x11vnc's heuristics for caching and reusing window pixel ...
