working with vnc viewer in command-line
Dear everybody!
I encrypted my password using vncpasswd.exe and saved it to a file. when I use vncviewer.exe -UserName user -passwd "passfile", it gives the error message "either the username was not recognized or the password was incorrect". Could you kindly tell me how I can fix this?
Regards,
Ali

I don't think the -passwd option works anymore, but what you can do instead is created a "configuration file" with the password in. For example, create a file called MyConnection.vnc in Notepad or similar and save it to the desktop. Add the lines:
Host=192.168.1.10
Username=username
Password=myencryptedpassword
replacing my example options with your own. Then at the command line, run:
vncviewer.exe C:\Users\User\Desktop\MyConnection.vnc
Hi Jack,
When I tried the above solution i am getting unknown connection string.
My vnc viewer version : 6.22.315.46706.
Could anyone help me to launch vnc viewer with command line arguments. But I don't want to enter vnc server credentials in prompt. I want to pass that the credentials as command line args.
Hi Jack, is any update on the above question?
