Download RealVNC 5.0.1

There are several programs based on the vnc protocol that allow remote management of computers. RealVNC gets its name from the fact that it is published by several people who tinkered with this protocol at the beginning at AT&T. RealVNC is available in one free and two commercial performances. An update was released on Thursday for the version 5.0 released last month. The following issues have been resolved in this:

Windows

• Fixed: RDP connections to 32-bit XP computers now succeed when VNC Server is running in Service Mode. Note that VNC Viewer users who subsequently connect must request control, since VNC and RDP connections cannot co-exist; the RDP user may or may not grant control requests.

Mac OS X

• Fixed: VNC now installs on case-sensitive HSFX file systems.
• Fixed: Multiple monitors attached to 10.6 (Snow Leopard) computers are now displayed correctly.
• Fixed: The graphical Licensing Wizard can now always be used to license VNC Server.
