Thanks for the reply.  I had only forwarded port 5800 through my router at home.  I'll 
try it with both ports forwarded and see what happens.

The proxy does allow 5800 through as I'm able to get to the login page.  I believe 
this is handled because my web browser is configured to use the proxy.

I'll try forwarding both ports on my router at home and then see if the Java applet 
comms also pass through the proxy.

Using the native viewer would be simpler, however, I don't think it would go through 
the http proxy.

        The web-java client needs port 5800 and 5900.  Are both allowed to pass 
through your proxy?  OTOH, if the problem occurs only when you're at office, isn't it 
simpler to use native VNC viewer?

Objet : HTTP proxy for web-based interface

I recently tried installing and using RealVNC on my home machine.  I enabled the web 
based interface and am able to browse to my machine from another machine at home and 
use it as expected via the Java applet which runs in the web page.

I then tried accessing my home machine from work via a web browser.  Accessing web 
sites from work requires use of an HTTP proxy.  The browser is configured properly to 
go through the proxy, so I'm able to get to the web page with the login prompt (I've 
enabled a password).

The problem is that, when the Java applet runs, it doesn't go through the proxy to 
communicate to the RealVNC server, rather, it apears to be attempting a direct 
connection.

Is there any way to tell the Java applet to also go through the HTTP proxy?
