I work for a company that has been using webex extensively, they shell out a lot of money a month to be able to support kiosk in the field via the web.
I have been reading quite a bit about VNC, and noticed that VNC has the ability to initiate a connection from the server end. I also noticed a few web VNC proxies. Would this allow me to create a connection from a machine in the field to our tech machine both behind firewalls, and both on natted networks? I understand that the polling an connection initiating software would have to be written that is no problem, I am an accomplished delphi developer with much experience with SOAP and other web RPC. I am also an intermediate c/c++ developer. I have begun reading the code base and I was wondering how difficult it would be to port the protocols and server/client to Delphi? Or at the least turn VNC into libraries I could call to create a custom server and client implementation. Ultimately I would like to build an open source tool that imitates WebEx with the very excellent VNC as the backbone. I have not seen anything else that come close to WebEx open source but if there is please let me know if you are aware of an alternate. I apologize if this information is available elsewhere, and if these are to topical of questions for good answers. But any help would be appreciated. Thank you in advance. Regards, Jose D.
