FR: Local then Internet-ID, copy & move computers, templates, remote settings multiple computers

Hi Trevor,

1. Well, although you have to choose either ID or direct within the same connection properties, you can still create a duplicate connection for that same remote PC. You can then select ID for one connection, and direct - for the other. But this doesn't make much sense because as I said the program can automatically detect direct connectivity even if you use ID.

2.  You mean stretching the Full Control mode window? We'll see if we can implement this in-program.

Hello Deyan,

Since we received the same through the tickets, I've responded in the tickets to avoid duplication.

Thanks.

Hello John,

You are absolutely right pointing at this issue, and we already have it on our roadmap to make the Agent unpack into a persistent folder instead of in temporary folders. This will be implemented in one of the nearest updates.

Hello Trevor,

1. This is how it works now. If RU detects direct connectivity, it uses. However, please note that for direct connection an incoming (listening) port of the Host must be open/allowed in firewall settings. By default it's 5650 but this value can be changed to something else. When you install the Host on a PC with Windows firewall only, the program automatically adds an exception rule to the firewall settings. However, it cannot add an exception rule to third-party firewalls, this is something a user must do themselves.

2. Underway.

3. Not yet, but that's a good idea. I will forward it to our developers.

4. You can assign different remote monitors of the remote PC to different Full Control mode windows on the local PC. This forum topic explains how.

(FR/BUG) 4. Selecting multiple computers and clicking Remote Settings attempts to open up multiple windows for all the computers (which fails for settings following the first window). Is it possible to send out settings to multiple computers with this method rather than pushing out new msi (Remote Install)?

Not yet. We are currently working on centralized Host permission management system, which if all goes well is going to be available in the next release. However, this will require using RU Server as a centralpiece.

Cannot access RU Hosts but can RDP to them...

Hello George,

Thank you for additional information. You said that you changed the IDs, but do you remember what was the format of the IDs previously? Did they start with "S-..." or were they in the new format which is XXX-XXX-XXX all digits.

Modify MSI file?

Hello Dennis,

No, this doesn't work that way, sorry :) You'll need to start the configuration process all over again.

Thank you for your understanding.

Hello Joao,

Thank you for your message.

It is possible to Bind RemoteUtilities Host application to a specific network interface ?

No, there's no such feature. There used to be one, but we removed it long ago.

Rene,

If you are connecting directly using the IP address of the remote PC, there shouldn't be any issues with speed provided that you have good network connection.

Also, please note that different programs have different initial (default) color settings, and some of them can even automatically adjust the quality depending on the speed "better". If you want to compare apples to apples, just set exactly same connection settings in different programs.
