Hi,
Background:
I have created pretty much a VNC - a program that allows a server to
be controlled by a computer any where in the world while using the
client. This has been done with the java.awt.robot class. It is not a
virus, I made it primarily for myself so that I could control my server
at home while at school.
PROBLEM:
When the computer "locks out" (Windows - XP) my
"createScreenCapture" for the screen is - black. When I call home and
ask someone to log in, the program immediately works taking pictures of
the main screen.
My guess is that Windows has overlayed (and locked out) the main
screen when prompting for a password (makes sense). But how do i get
that password screen visible!?!?!
Is there a way to keep the main screen from being locked out - ie: a
security policy to change? I have yet to try this on a linux box as I
only have a mac with an outdated OS, which cant handle my program (Java
is too old).
Thank you so much everyone - been trying to figure this out for a while!
