RE: VNC Repeater

For feature requests and bug reports RC15 RC16. Please use the forum at http://forum.ultravnc.net/

Speaking of the repeater, there is new support for the repeater in VNC
Scan (http://www.vncscan.com).  I'm working on getting it to do more
with the repeater but the current version will at least let you specify
the repeater address and port at the group level.  Any computer that you
double-click on will launch against that repeater setting.  

I really love the repeater, guys.  It answers some pretty long standing
problems for all of us.

Keep up the good work!
