Download RealVNC 5.0.2

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. Version 5.0.2 was released on Tuesday and the following changes and improvements have been made to it:

Windows

• FIXED: VNC Server in Service Mode no longer reports error 10038 (“SetBlocking”) when run in conjunction with certain third party software.

Mac OS X

• NEW: Support for 10.8 (Mountain Lion). VNC is a signed (that is, legitimate) application for download from the Internet.
• NEW: Support for Mac Book Pro computers with Retina displays.
• FIXED: Connections can now be established to a computer whose display is asleep (lower of the two sliders in the System Preferences > Energy Saver pane). Note connections cannot be established if the computer itself is asleep.
