Only a single VNC connection allowed?
Hello,
We are using Wyse 3040s with ThinOS. They are great, except for the fact that we can't have multiple simultaneous VNC connections.
In older firmware you could set this from 0-5, but now it's only 0 or 1. Setting to 0 disables VNC access.
MaxVNCD={0,1}
Has anyone figured out a way around this? Tech support claimed it was done for "security reasons". I'd much rather we be given the option to manage that ourselves.

Wyse is out of business and windows now only allows 1 RDP connection. If you want more than 1 you have to pay for client licence.
MaxVNCD has a different behavior in firmware 6.5.0.23.
If you use firmware 6.4.x.x MaxVNCD :
MaxVNCD={0, 1, 2, 3, 4, 5} Specifies the number of concurrent VNC sessions allowed. Set to 0 to disable shadowing, or a non-zero absolute count of the number of concurrent VNC sessions. Maximum count value allowed is 5.
If you use firmware 6.5.x.x MaxVNCD
MaxVNCD={no, yes} Yes/no option to enable VNC shadowing. Default value is yes which means VNC shadowing is enabled. Note that only one VNC client session is allowed.
and at this moment there is no option to allow more than 1 connection to your terminal.
