I'm curious about the RC4 key file used by the DSM plugin within the ActiveX Viewer/Server. Is their a way to send the RC4 key value as part of the HTML/Javascript that loads the ActiveX control or does a key file already have to exist on the client PC? I want to be able to use the DSM plugin without requiring my customers to download a key file. Any suggestions?

Actually we could add a property to ServerX to specify DSM key as a byte buffer instead of passing a dsm keyfile path. I think something like that maybe availalbe within next couple weeks.

| That would be fantastic! Would this feature be added to ViewerX as well? This would enable web applications to distribute unique keys via HTTPS for every VNC session. All of a sudden pre-shared keys don't sound that bad... Many thanks!

| One more question... Would we pass a base64 encoded RC4 key?

Most probably it will be possible to pass a RC4 key as a byte array as well as base64 encoded string.

Why not, ViewerX would benefit from such addition.

| Just an update to this long overdue thread. Current development build of ViewerX has this feature implemented. In the COM programming terms, the API accepts RC4 key as a SAFEARRAY of unsigned char.
In case of .Net what you will have to do is simply read a key to a byte[] array and pass it to a ViewerX instance. We are planning to release a new ViewerX build together with the VNC Manager v4.5 release. But we can offer a development build for testing to anyone interested.
Kindest Regards,
