Re: Strengthen Password

Complex passwords are supported, the request was to enforce complex passwords.
The password is set by the administrator and it's also the administrator that would enforce or not complex passwords.

This has low priority and don't offer an extra security.

Perhaps i understood wrong the request!

SkyBeam

It's not the DSMplugin that need to change his location, but the plugin settings need to be saved to the correct ini file.
Depending how winvnc is started that can be PF, PD, AD

Code was changed, but i just forgot to add the save to ini function :)

The content of the shortcut would be handy, adresses don't give any info to repeat it.

Does 1.5.0.x have the same issue ?
