restore previous vnc config #15

Open GoogleCodeExporter opened 9 years ago

GoogleCodeExporter commented 9 years ago
I have vnc installed already on some machines (to be used by other people), 
running on the default port, so i need to install vnc on a different port, 
start it, do my things and then uninstall it and restore the old vnc config.

This machines are showcases screen where the shop admins change what to show... 
but sometimes i need to do maintenance operations and i don't want to share 
their session/password and even worst, they share my session/password.

So a way to detect previous vnc configs, backup then, restart the vnc with the 
new configs and later restore the config and again restore the vnc would be a 
good feature.

in the past i had a script that installed a different vnc on a different port, 
so they didn't touch each other configs, but you app is so much simpler :)

I can see that you are using ultravnc, so if another vnc (realvnc or tightvnc) 
is used, they aren't removed... that is good, as it give a workaround to this 
problem... but only if we could choose what port ultravnc will use.

So probably this bug can be changed to "Allow one to choose what vnc port to be 
used"
