Some viewers see some connections on-line others off-line.

Hello Douglas,

Thank you for your message.

I'm glad to hear that you've figured out the issue!

Now I know all hosts have to have monitors for the host to allow a connction.

For headless machines please try enabling the Use legacy capture mode feature in the Host Settings -> Other mode - enabling this features usually helps to resolve similar issues related to screen capture or other performance issues when connecting to headless remote machines (i.e. having a monitor connected to a remote Host is not mandatory for the connection to work properly). After enabling the feature please make sure to restart Host in order for changes to be applied.

Hope that helps.

The RU development and support folks are awesome.

Mouse scroll broken on host after installing version 7.1.0.0

Hello Peter,

Thank you for your message.

We will try to reproduce the issue with the mouse scroll when using the latest version of Remote Utilities on Windows 7 to see if we can reproduce it and implement a quick fix. Could you please let us know what are the exact builds of all Viewer and Host machines where the issue occurs?

Looking forward to your reply.

View 7.1.0.0 - Terminal mode crashes

Hello Bill,

Thank you for your patience.

Could you please also let us know what is the OS of your remote Hast machine and its exact build as well? If the issue occurs when connecting to a few Hosts, then please let us know the OS and build for all of those remote machines.

Looking forward to your reply.

Attempt to connect to online host, it goes offline and won't connect

Hello Douglas,

Thank you for your message.

Am I right in assuming that this is a headless Host machine you've mentioned in another thread here? If this is the case, could you please confirm that the issue was resolved by connecting a monitor to the machine or by enabling the Use legacy capture mode as I recommended in the other thread?

Looking forward to your reply.

Your getting started and knowlege base is flawed in respect to monitor

Hello Douglas,

Thank you for the provided feedback.

We will consider adding a section on headless machines to our Documentation/Knowledge base.
As for the connectivity issue - please try enabling the Use legacy capture mode feature in the Host Settings -> Other tab and see if you're able to connect to a headless Host machine this way. After enabling the feature please make sure to restart Host in order for the changes to be applied.

Hope that helps.

After install,

Hello Douglas,

Thank you for your message.

Could you please clarify if you've tried uninstalling following this complete uninstallation guide? I've just tried to reproduce the issue but everything works as expected.

Looking forward to your reply.

Err_ssl_protocol_error on remoteutilities.com, host/agent don'r work

Hello Philip,

Thank you for your message.

Could you please double-check if the date and time on the Host machine are correct? Sometimes incorrect date and time might result in getting the "Err_ssl_protocol_error" error messages.
In addition, according to the part of the log file you've attached (please in the future do not post the logs on the forum as they might contain some personal information), it seems like the ports used by Remote Utilities are blocked or used by another software. Please make sure that the machine in question has TCP Outbound ports 5655 and/or 443 are opened. For more information on ports used by Remote Utilities please see this page.
Last but not least, please see if any of the solutions listed in this troubleshooting guide might help to resolve the issue as well.

Hope that helps.
