VNC port won't stick

Post by docfxit »

When I configure the vnc port it reverts back to 5900.

I go into Admin Properties, Network, Select, VNC Port 5901
When I select apply the select button goes blank and the port changes to 5900.

What can I do to get it to stay at 5901?

Running UltraVNC Server 1.4.0.5
Windows 10 Pro 22H2

Thank you for the update Rudi :

With the new version the Select button does stay selected.
The VNC port always changes to 5905.
It doesn't make any difference what number I put in there when I select Apply it changes to 5905.

Thanks,

I tested it with 5901 and it stayed, i wil recheck it this evening.

The port normal only auto change when the selected nummer is already in use.
If you set 5901 and 5901 is already in use, vnc add 1 and change it to 5902.
