Linux Viewer 1.0.8.q Beta 8 Address book glitch

Hi Nijel,

One question - did you update your Viewer installation (i.e. you were running Viewer on that machine previously) or was it a new installation to which you imported/added your XML address book?

Restart Agent as not working

Hello,

Could you please be more specific as to what doesn't work, specifically? Do you see the prompt for entering admin credentials when you invoke the "Restart agent as..." command?

MSI Generator

Hello H E,

Thank you for your message.

When an email message is sent a 'flag' is set in Agent settings in the Windows registry. Re-sending a message each time you run Agent on that machine doesn't make sense because the Internet-ID code and authentication settings do not change.

If you wipe the Agent registry entry and run Agent anew - the settings will change and email message will be sent again because no 'sent' flag is set yet.

Hope that helps.

Font size settings in viewer

Hello,

Please, right click on the Viewer launch icon, select Properties -> Compatibility tab -> Change high DPI settings. Do you have any options selected in this window?

Task Manager not showing anything

Hi Donn,

It looks like the Task Manager mode may have been disallowed in the Host settings on the remote side. Could you please check that?

Hello Jack,

Thank you for your message.

We recommend that you update your RU Server to the most recent version (3.0.0.1) and also both Viewer and Host to v.7.0.0.3. Let us know if the issue persists after updating.

Font size settings in viewer

Hello,

Thank you for your message.

Unfortunately, Remote Utilities only uses the system font size, it doesn't have any own font size controls.

It should be noted that there are two similar (yet not same) Windows settings - make text bigger and make everything bigger. Here is a screenshot:

You should use the first option (slider) to increase text only. Since RU follows system settings this will increase the text size on controls in Viewer/Host dialogs.

Hope that helps.

Wake-on-LAN: any advances on this feature?

Hi Cosmos,

We are planning to include this feature in one of the version 7 minor updates. Unfortunately, no ETA can be provided yet.

Let me know if you have other questions.

Automatic deployment of version 7 key to viewers possible?

Hi Cosmos,

We have just tested this scenario (with portable Viewer) , everything seems to work well. See the attached screenshots.

May I ask if you exactly followed the procedure provided in portable viewer update guide ?

Also, make sure that you explicitly allow the signed in user to use the key. In order to do that:

1. In the License deployment window select your key and click Edit.
2.  In the Edit dialog click Applies to..
3. Select the user from the user list and make sure "All access / Allow" is enabled.

I assume that you might have missed that step. Currently, we are updating our documentation so more detailed instructions for this specific feature are comaing. Sorry for the inconvenience.
