Bozteck One-Click VNC

What is it?

Bozteck One-Click is a single click solution for the open source VNC Remote control.  It allows the end user to simply click on an icon and make a connection back to the helpdesk computer which allows the help desk technician to remote control their Windows desktop.

What does it cost?

It's FREE!  We wanted to create this tool to give back to the VNC community. 

How does it work?

It's very simple to operate.  Inside the zip file, there is a file named OneClickVNC.exe and another named Settings.ini.  The Settings.ini is just a simple text file with the address of the remote helpdesk computer.

The address is the only thing in the file.  If you are listening on an alternate port, specify address:port.  The default listening port for vncviewer.exe is 5500.

Step By Step

1. Create a text file named settings.ini with notepad that contains your public IP address.  That should be the only line in the file.  To find your public IP address, browse to http://www.whatismyip.com
   
   Sample settings.ini
    
2. If your firewall needs tweaking, make sure that a path on TCP port 5500 is open and routing to your PC.
    
3. Send the oneclickvnc.exe and the settings.ini to the users that you support.  Have them put both files in the same folder but that folder can be anywhere on their system.
    
4. On YOUR computer, start your vncviewer in -listen mode.  (vncviewer.exe -listen)
    
5. When they double-click on the oneclickvnc.exe, their computer will connect to your listening vncviewer.exe and give you a remote control session of their computer.

Tips and Tricks

• This will work in safe mode with networking support.
   

• You can package both files using the WinZip Self-Extractor and make this even easier for the end user.  Set the self-extracting file to execute oneclickvnc.exe upon extraction and you can distribute it as a single file.
