Silent install for TightVNC.
 
I prefer TightVNC over UltraVNC, essentially because they have viewers also for other operating systems and I'm not stuck on browser/java viewer under my preferred OS.
I install and manage TightVNC with the following XML package description:
<presource lang="xml"> <package id="tightvnc" name="TightVNC server" revision="129" priority="50" reboot="false">
<check type="uninstall" condition="exists" path="TightVNC 1.3.8" />
<install cmd="%SOFTWARE%\tightvnc\tightvnc-1.3.8-setup.exe /sp- /verysilent" />
</package>
<package id="tightvnc-settings" name="TightVNC server settings" revision="3" priority="5" reboot="false" execute="once">
<depends package-id="tightvnc"/>
<install cmd='cmd /c "%SOFTWARE%\tightvnc\tightvnc.bat"' />
<remove cmd='echo "nothing"' />
</package>
</presource>
TightVNC is a simple batch script that setup TightVNC server and restart it:
<presource lang="dos">
:: start, restart or apply settings to tightvnc
::
::
exit 0
</presource>
tightvnc.reg contains the setup of the server, most notably the access password, i.e. I can use as a registry patch:
<presource lang="reg">
Windows Registry Editor Version 5.00
"Password"=hex:e6,ee,26,ee,00,e2,e6,5b
"PasswordViewOnly"=hex:38,9a,aa,ee,ef,63,ef,e5
</presource
'''NOTE''' that passwords are crypted, but this is no a paranoid setup, someone can easily have access to the registry patch and try to decrypt the password.
