MS-Logon-Groups via unattended Installation (SOLVED)

Post by the_captain »

Hi,

with help of AutoHotkey I built my own unattended setup for a server-installation of version 1.0.6.4. During the setup I copy my own ini-file into the installation directory of UltraVNC to configure the application. That works fine except for the MS-Logon-Groups.

I edited the ultravnc.ini like this:

Code: Select all

[admin_auth]
group1=my-domain-group
But after starting the UltraVNC-service I can't connect to the server. When I check the admin properties my group doesn't show up and I still have to add it manually.

Has anyone an idea how I can solve this problem??

Thanks.

Does really no one have any idea?

I thought this would be a minor problem and I'm just overlooking something obvious.

I also tried

Code: Select all

[admin_auth]
group1=my-domain\my-domain-group
... still doesn't work.

---
Short summary:
* My AD-groups added to the ini-file
* UVNC installed
* Standard ini-file replaced with my own
* UVNC-service startet
* Connection fails because UVNC-Server has no predefined AD-Groups

Does the INI file you create automatically match one that works when you create it manually?

There are a couple other settings that directly affect whether UltraVNC uses MS Logon:

Code: Select all

MSLogonRequired=1
NewMSLogon=0
I've found that NewMSLogon doesn't work very well, so I use the old one.

Hi,

the INI files are identical. Thats strange because I can't find my group names neither in the INI nor in the Registry.

I set the INI options in all my previous attemps to:

Code: Select all

MSLogonRequired=1
NewMSLogon=1
Next I'll try it without NewMSLogon.


#####
EDIT

You were right. I disabled the NewMSLogon and VNC used my AD-groups from the INI correctly.
Actually I can't even remember why I set this option in the first place.

It works fine now - THANKS!

To automate the install using MS logon 2 you can use the MSLogonACL

Go to MSLogonACL for UltraVNC here:
