Hello Alan,

Thank you for your message.

You are absolutely right saying that VPN is another realm and a huge project on its own. Answering your question about security - absolutely all traffic that Remote Utilities sends and receives is TLS-secured, there are no exceptions. The type of license makes no difference in this respect.

It's only bad when I forget to close the connection when finished

If you navigate to connection properties -> Additional properties, you can enable the 'Log off connection on disconnect' option. If you close the active Full Control window - which is probably what you do when you finish task - the program will also log you off from the remote PC. Currently, because you are still being logged on to the remote PC even after an active session, the alert message is shown.

Hope that helps.

We could manage a remote session, but it might have to be an assisted view-only session unless we have an agreement in-place, due to the nature of the data we hold and the access this system provides.

We are UK based (GMT+0).

Hello Anthony,

Sorry for the initial confusion and misunderstanding. Currently, RU Server doesn't offer ipv6 support. We will add ipv6 support in the very next server update.

Thank you for your patience.

Hello Chas,

You need not worry. These lines only tell that your Host has successfully connected to our server relay infrastructure and is in the 'listening' mode. If it were an unauthorised connection, there would be for example this:

Remote screen connection. Started.

or

FTP connection. Started.

depending on the chosen connection mode.

Have changed Access numbers and passwords to be sure.

You can also enable two-factor authentication.  And if you want to additionally protect the address book that resides on your Viewer computer, use address book encryption.

Hope that helps.

Hi Edwin,

Thank you for your message. Exactly how old are the Hosts? This 'Simple update' method was only introduced starting a certain minor release in version 6.x and may not work for Host versions earlier than that, unfortunately.

Hello Markus,

We've updated the message. Please, do not share your sensitive information publicly on the forum. If your support request contains such information, please use the ticketing system. Posting on the forum will not speed up the response (quite the contrary - the tickets are usually responded faster than messages in the community).

Thanks.

Hi Milo,

Yes, it should work provided it is allowed in your country. When you place your order, you can choose the payment method on the final checkout page.

Hope that helps.

Hello Milo,

Thank you for your interest. If you are the only concurrent user you can install the Viewer on all three - and use the same license on all of them.

For this scenario you can also consider using the portable version https://www.remoteutilities.com/support/docs/portable-viewer/.

Hello Keith,

Thank you for your message. Could you please send the Host logs to support@remoteutilities.com.

Hi Jorge,

In the previous version that you have (6.x.x.x) the logs folder is located in: C:\Program Files(x86)\Remote Utilities - Host\Logs.

Only examining the logs can tell why you cannot connect using the Internet-ID.

Hello Jorge,

Our servers are up and running and according to monitoring data there were no downtimes. Could you ask the remote user to look into the Host log. You can be located in: C:\ProgramData\Remote Utilities\Logs
