Hello,
I'm working on a remote solution as a part of my finals on university. I'm using noVNC and websockify (so my remote solution can work in a browser). I'm also using UltraVNC servers and UltraVNC repeater (so I can connect to any PC, even without public IP). Problem is though, that I can have only one active connection at a time. My question is: what do I need to do, to allow multiple connections at a time. Right know I launch websockify with 6080 as a source port and localhost:5900 as a target_address:target_port (localhost because websockify runs on the same server as UltraVNC repeater, which is set to use port 5900).

Thanks.

Neither noVNC nor websockify has any such limitations so either your
problem is with the UltraVNC stuff, or you're hitting a bug.

What do the various logs say?

A: Because it messes up the order in which people normally read text.
Q: Why is top-posting such a bad thing?

If I use UltraVNC's client, I can do multiple connections. By multiple connections I mean: Having two different computers with different IDs (UltraVNC server is installed on these) and connecting from two different computers to those with IDs (UltraVNC server running on them). What happens now: I connect from PC1 to PC2. When I try to connect from PC3 to PC4, is says connecting and after a while it just disconnects. But, while it says connecting, I disconnect PC1 from PC2 and PC3 suddenly connects to PC4.

Are you running the latest version of websockify? What does its log say?

Ou, my fault I guess. I was using somehow compiled version for Windows and it has just really few options compared to the original Linux version. Linux version seems to be working. Thanks.
