Tight VNC Credentials

avatar

Not sure if this is a bug or if I'm missing a setting.

I have the Allow copy credentials to clipboard selected but when connecting using Tight VNC. The password is not copied, I have to enter the password instead of just pasting it.

Also, why is it that when you switch the Display to External.. it greys out the option to see the password?

Hi,
It's because it's not supported. There is no password parameter in the command line. It's only supported by UltraVNC

The UltraVNC connection lags.

Anyway to implement something for Tight VNC that it copies the password to the clipboard?

Hi,
Have you tried the auto typing macro in the tab Event?

That works but you then have the password exposed in the Typing macro area.

What's the Macro password used for? Is there a way I can put the password in there and use some command to use that password?

Hi,
It a special password that you can access with $MACRO_PASSWORD$ variable
