Repeater Linux port

Disclaimer: At this point (Oct 2005), Repeater Linux port is in very early stage (Expect bugs, missing features and general unstability).

Compiling

Just type "make" in directory where you unpacked the zip file. It should compile and link an executable "repeater".

Runs in terminal window in Linux (no GUI whatsoever)
Start command: ./repeater
Command-line options: ./repeater [optionalviewerlistenport] [optionalserverlistenport]
All versions support mode II (the mode where both viewer and server make an outgoing connection to repeater)
Starting from version 0.08, supports mode I (the mode where viewer connects repeater which then connects server).
By default, listens to port viewer_port = 5900 for viewers (can be overridden with command line parameter)
By default, listens to port server_port = 5500 for servers (can be overridden with command line parameter)
After start, program should report it has opened both ports and is waiting for connection
You can use standard viewer/server on other 2 boxes (I just used 3 vmware windows, server and viewer running nt4 and repeater running Ubuntu Hoary, any Linux should work though)
Example (Mode 2):

Repeater is on ip address 192.168.137.131, listening on port 5500 for servers and 5900 for viewers. If you need lower ports, note that usually only root can open ports under 1024 on Linux. Running as root is obviously dangerous.
On UltraVnc server, choose "Add New connection" from menu and give "host name" 192.168.137.131:5500 and "id code" ID:5555. Repeater should now show something like "Add_server_list(): Server added to list 5555"
On UltraVnc viewer, write "ID:5555" on field "VNC Server". Also mark "Proxy/Repeater" and write "192.168.137.131:5900" on that line.
Press "Connect"- button. Ultravnc viewer should start to show Ultravnc server screen and Repeater should show something like "Add_viewer_list(): viewer added to list 5555".
You can stop repeater with ctrl+c on terminal window

Repeater is on ip address 192.168.137.131, listening on port 5500 for servers and 5900 for viewers.
UltraVnc server is on address 192.168.137.132, listening on port 5900
On UltraVnc viewer, write "192.168.137.132:5900" on field "VNC Server". Also mark "Proxy/Repeater" and write "192.168.137.131:5900" on that line.
Press "Connect"- button. Ultravnc viewer should start to show "VNC Authentication" dialog and ask for password. Repeater should show something like "Add_viewer_list(): viewer added to list -1".

Maximum number of active session (server/viewer pair connected): 100, can be changed in repeater.cpp:

Cleans up inactive (server/viewer pair "match" not found) connections after 600 seconds, can be changed in repeater.cpp:
