Talking about core virtualization at Microsoft (Hyper-V, Virtual PC and Virtual Server).
When Virtual Server is first installed - the default configuration is to have VMRC (our remote video protocol) disabled. This is done as a basic security measure - as it means we install in the most secure configuration - and it forces users to realize that by enabling VMRC they are opening up another TCP/IP port, etc...
If - however - you do a lot of Virtual Server installations, you may wish to automate the enabling and configuration of VMRC. The following script will do just this:
set vs = wscript.CreateObject("VirtualServer.Application") vs.VMRCEnabled = truevs.VMRCAdminPortNumber = 5900vs.VMRCIdleConnectionTimeoutEnabled = falsevs.VMRCXResolution = 800 vs.VMRCYResolution = 600
set vs = wscript.CreateObject("VirtualServer.Application")
vs.VMRCEnabled = truevs.VMRCAdminPortNumber = 5900vs.VMRCIdleConnectionTimeoutEnabled = falsevs.VMRCXResolution = 800 vs.VMRCYResolution = 600
This is the standard script I run on my system - but you can feel free to tweak the parameters.
Cheers,Ben
