Confusing tooltip

[kvdb]

Binary package hint: tsclient

Hi,

I tried using tsclient for managing a few vnc connections.
The GUI is so confusing, I'd call it a bug.

In the "General" tab in the field "Username" (which tightvnc doesn't use anyway), the tooltip says:
"Enter the username for the remote system. For vnc, enter the path to your saved vnc password file."
Ok, I created a password file using vncpasswd. But on connecting, it wouldn't be picked up.
After experimenting some more, it seems that putting the filename in the field called "Protocol file" does work.
The tooltip says "Some protocols require a file containing settings. If required, enter the path to the file here."

The tooltip under both "Username" and "Protocol file" should be corrected.

Cheers,
Kees

tsclient has been removed from the Ubuntu 11.10 archives. The software has not had a new release in years and was no longer being maintained. Unfortunately that means this bug won't be fixed.
