Download VNC Connect 6.4.0
There are several programs based on the vnc protocol that can be used to manage computers remotely. RealVNC gets its name from the fact that it is published by several people who have tinkered with this protocol from the very beginning at AT&T. The program has been renamed to VNC Connect with version 6.0 and is available in different performances, from free home use to paid business use. Version 6.4.0 has been released with the following improvements:
VNC Server 6.4.0 released
This is a release of VNC Server and supporting programs for installation on remote computers you want to control.
- NEW: High-speed streaming (first release) If you have a Professional or Enterprise subscription, benefit from a significant performance improvement without compromising on picture quality, especially for graphically-intensive operations over slow links.
- NEW: Ensure cloud connections are all peer-to-peer, so no session data is sent via the cloud.
- NEW: Join a computer to a team (that is, enable cloud connectivity) at the command line using a JSON file instead of a large token.
- Setting the IpClientAddresses parameter (formerly hosts) to filter incoming direct connections now allows connecting users to specify IPv6 addresses.
Windows
- Disable audit logging to the domain Windows Event Log by setting the LogSessionToDomainLog advanced parameter to FALSE, which might speed up connection time. Audit logging to the local Windows Event Log continues.
Linux
- Start VNC Server in Service Mode from a desktop shortcut, and stop it from the app menu, instead of running commands.
- Specify the screen capture technology used on a Raspberry Pi (hardware or software) separately from the preferred encoding using the CaptureTech parameter.
- Use regular expressions in conjunction with the CertificateUserName advanced parameter, to match user names more flexibly.
mac
- FIXED: The LeftOptKey, LeftCmdKey, RightOptKey and RightCmdKey parameters now map received keysyms correctly.
