Custom client and worldwide availability (random devices)

[pdifeo]

After a long time, I made a test run of creating a custom client.

The premise is that I have never given the server key to anyone.

Strangely enough, I find a number of accesses (see below) that I have never had until now. The good thing is that I have disabled the new devices. The server has been active since last year and no one has ever logged in until 1 hour after the custom client was created.

Am I missing something ? I understand that custom client compilations are made available on the network . Is that so?

For me, all the security I had built is gone. I would like to understand this better.

Can anyone help me understand?

I can't understand how they were able to connect to my server.

This only happened after I created a custom client.

How is this possible? The only explanation I give myself is that the builds are accessible to everyone . Is that so?

its most likely AV doing it, mine has started doing as well. For added security make sure you enable The control end need to login before access under settings/others

@dinger1986 we have a different view of occasional customers

1. You have to make them download the client
2. They have to run it
3. They have to log in to the server . Why consume a licence for an occasional client?
4. They have to give you a temporary ID and password.

That means spending at least 20 minutes on the phone explaining what they have to do. Not all customers are computer trained

Why would they need to log in?

I think he means that for you to be able to remote control a client you need to login. Not the computer you are connecting to.

@Nawaki89 yes that's what I meant, just login on the supporters machine not supportee
