RealVNC Server
RealVNC (Virtual Network Computing) is a software program that allows you to connect to another computer on a network
and control it remotely. Compared to the Windows terminal service which has a similar function, RealVNC allows only one
administrator to connect to the server at a time. That is, if another is connected to the server as an administrator, the previous
administrator connection will be disconnected.
In RealVNC, the server and the viewer communicate via the VNC protocol. You must install a RealVNC server on the
computer you wish to control remotely, and a VNC viewer on the computer which remotely controls the computer where the
RealVNC server is installed. Hence, the RealVNC server program is installed on a WES client.
By using this program, you do not have to move directly to the client site to resolve its problems. Instead, you can connect to
the client from the server and solve problems remotely. For this reason, RealVNC is being used.
Only administrators can configure the RealVNC server properties. To display the configuration dialog box for RealVNC,
double-click the RealVNC icon in the system tray. From this dialog box, you can run a VNC server and configure a password
and various properties. The default password is set to ‘Administrator’. Note that it is case-sensitive.
