Re: VNC under Windows ME
I don't believe it's a matter of internet sharing or even browser usage. The applet will not initialize under my Windows ME. I have not indicator in the SysTray to show that the service is up and running. I have an FTP server that works fine and can connect remotely via PC anywhere. I'd much rather use VNC if at all possible. It looks like I may have to move to Win2000. - Original Message - From: "Kurt Mysker" <[EMAIL PROTECTED]> To: <[EMAIL PROTECTED]> Sent: Saturday, April 07, 2001 8:20 AM Subject: RE: VNC under Windows ME > Do you have internet connection sharing turned on? > > Kurt Mysker > "Philosophizing is nothing more than looking into a mirror that is looking > into another mirror, and picking the layer you like best." - Yoursker > > -Original Message- > From: [EMAIL PROTECTED] > [mailto:[EMAIL PROTECTED]]On Behalf Of Charles Coleman > Sent: Friday, April 06, 2001 10:34 PM > To: [EMAIL PROTECTED] > Subject: Re: VNC under Windows ME > > > Thanks for the responses everyone.

I have as good as a copy of that in my mailbox. Ever since I made this tiny modification to the Java viewer (http://www.workspot.net/~harmen/vnc/) that allowed me to connect through my ISPs packet filtering firewall, I get mail about VNC and firewalls at least once a week. So I have been thinking about setting up a FAQ for this. (Well, actually I tried to write an enhanced viewer, but that didn't work out see link in sig) I'm not sure how to go about this though: lots of people haven't got a clue about proxies, firewalls and networking in general. And I don't want to advise on how to break a local security policy, unless I trust they know what they're doing (about 20% of people who mail me work in the IT department). So maybe I shouldn't make it too easy with a FAQ? -- Harmen http://www1.tip.nl/~t515027/brandgang/ - To unsubscribe, send a message with the line: unsubscribe vnc-list to [EMAIL PROTECTED] See also: http://www.uk.research.att.com/vnc/intouch.html -
secure vnc
First let me say, i'm aware of Mindbright's Mindvnc which is no longer supported. I want to run a java vnc client securely from any machine, even those annoyingly restricted internet cafe's and ADSL which is NAT'ed and run java vnc client through ssh to a static ip Linux server running vncserver. Can/will this work, or is the solution to use ssl/java vnc client? I've done some hunting around the web which mostly talks about using local ssh forwarding. Can this work with 2 applets, one doing local ssh forwarding, and another running the java vnc client? I apologise if this has been asked before, the search thing is either not working or giving no results back. many thanks Darren - To unsubscribe, send a message with the line: unsubscribe vnc-list to [EMAIL PROTECTED] See also: http://www.uk.research.att.com/vnc/intouch.html -
extended java client
Tried to contact the author of mfviewer, the extended java vnc client and got a bounce. Muddassar Farooq <[EMAIL PROTECTED]># I was experimening with his java client on a local LAN environment. Which said ... Just given vnc a tryout and a java client from http://www.uk.research.att.com/vnc/extras.html#altjava which i'm very impressed with. Unfortunately the java client is crashing a lot at the moment, any ideas what causes this? Setup for client is NT4 WKS, SP6a, to a FreeBSD 4.2-Stable, vnc from ports tree aka vnc-3.3.3r2_unixsrc.tar.gz. I'm starting the server with just vncserver & And the client with C:\temp1\mfviewer>jview vncviewer 192.168.123.205:1 RFB server supports protocol version 3.3 VNC authentication succeeded sending client init Desktop name is root's X desktop (abc.xyz.com:1) Desktop size is 1024 x 768 disconnect It connects for a few minutes and then crashes. C:\temp1\mfviewer>jview Microsoft (R) Command-line Loader for Java Version 5.00.3309 Copyright (C) Microsoft Corp 1996-2000. All rights reserved. PS. Are there better java vnc clients / more stable? regards Darren - To unsubscribe, send a message with the line: unsubscribe vnc-list to [EMAIL PROTECTED] See also: http://www.uk.research.att.com/vnc/intouch.html -

Well I guess that will be a problem, because in strict-security environments you may not be able to grant an applet permission to connect to a local proxy. And allthough Java allows for HTTP tunneling restricted applets also, the tunneling technique has too much overhead for something noisy like VNC (HTTP-->RFB). > > Can/will this work, or is the solution to use ssl/java vnc client? If you're talking about HTTPS tunneling (SSL-->HTTP-->RFB) I had thought this was the solution to two problems: 1) A restricted Java applet could connect out using a http/security proxy, and the proxy would just have to handle 1 CONNECT request for as long as the ssl/http connection was persistent. 2) The connection would be secure. I was very dissapointed when I tried this, and found the browser will do a CONNECT request for each HTTP request. > > I've done some hunting around the web which mostly talks about using > local ssh forwarding. > > Can this work with 2 applets, one doing local ssh forwarding, > and another running the java vnc client? <...> I suggest you wait for the MindTerm SSH-API, and maybe use MindVNC until then. -- Harmen http://www1.tip.nl/~t515027/brandgang/ - To unsubscribe, send a message with the line: unsubscribe vnc-list to [EMAIL PROTECTED] See also: http://www.uk.research.att.com/vnc/intouch.html -
