Hi List,
I have a very peculiar problem about accessing VNC server behind gateways
and proxy server...
Here is the background info...
I have a client who has pretty big vnc installation base mostly windows but
Linux and Solaris also includes.
Most of the Road Warriors have windows with vnc and ssh installed on them (
mostly winxp sp2 )
VNC is used to remote admin or support for some of the road warriors. But
most of the times when the VNC server is behind a gateway like this it wont
connect.
[ Internet ] -- [ Gateway ] --- [ Lan ]
The work about is to use the UltraVNC relay service, but if you don't have
any control over the gateway this becomes impossible to operate. And I hate
to open ports in the firewalls of the road warriors' computers.
Is there a way something like reverse shell that allows someone to connect
to a VNC server, behind gateway and through firewalls without opening any
holes in it or a tcp/ip proxy that is proxy that does not allow connections
from the internet ?
Basically, The user initiates the connection and the helpdesk can use the
same socket to the laptop for connection over VNC ( vnc encryption and
compression have already been taken care of, and only one socket is needed
for all this- for a firewall I would require only one hole )
Any help would be appreciated - aditya
