hi, I'm using veyon and it make easyer life in my lab I've still a problem. I have got 27 pc and all works: for example shut down or share a link or file. But I can't log in the 27 pc. It can be very usefull for me because I teach to young children... so they sometimes cannot digit the password :D It says password is not correct...
SlrG commented on Jan 24, 2021
If you correctly setup authentication you should be able to remotecontrol a single system and log it in from the teacher system. You could even log in all systems simultaneously if the password is the same on all systems. Please read the manual on how to setup it all.
alexia74 commented on Jan 24, 2021
Hi, I can do anything... remote control, send link and file, do presentations and so on. I tested before to use it. But I have a problem with login to the pc.
alexia74 commented on Jan 24, 2021
no problem :) language: italian the password is composed by a name (caps lock on the first letter) and 4 numbers there are not special characters. I tried to write it on a text and it was correct. it can be the caps lock... of the first letter, but it is a simple password... I can try to change the password on a pc... to test what happens.
alexia74 commented on Jan 24, 2021
I think it is the only thing that doesn't work :D but it would be great if it works... as they are 27 pc and I work with very young children (6 years old), that cannot digit the password :)
