I install vnc and setup the key. Then do an export of the registry setting.
Then within Innosetup, inport the registery and compile.
Using Inno it will then put those registry settings out there for the user,
then run the reverse connect to your ip. Work like a dream.

What you need is for UltraVNC to add a command-line parameter to winvnc.exe
to tell it which DSM to use.  The vncviewer.exe has that parameter.  The
server does not.  You'd need to run the server as an application, not as a
service.

The rc4.key doesn't need to be configured if you are using the _noreg
version.  Look at the "testviewer.bat" and "testserver.bat" that come with
the plugin for a way to set an environment variable pointing to the key
file.

In fact, if the server had the /dsmplugin parameter like the viewer, you
could use those 2 batch files to start up UltraVNC for you.

Yes and no.  You really need to get Rudi to add the /dsmplugin parameter to
the server, then you'd be all set.
