hint: Look at tunneling... OTOH, if your IT department finds out you're
intentionally breaking through their firewall without their approval, you
could find yourself called in on the carpet, so it's a better idea to talk
to your IT department and get them to work WITH you instead of fighting
them.

Subject: HELP! Firewall issues


I have a question about firewall configuration for VNC and Remote Desktop...

I use Windows Remote Desktop but have not been able to use it through my
company's firewall.  Besides contacting admin support to have them open port
3389, is there a way around this?  I was thinking I could use the Web based
Remote desktop and change something or change the port that Remote Desktop
uses to one not blocked by my company - any ideas?

If that doesn't work, I'm going to use a RealVNC/UltraVNC/etc. program like
I
used to use (Remote Desktop works so much better though since I'm always
using XP -> XP and don't need the multi-platform features of VNC but do want
to be able to control audio, drives, printers, etc. like RD allows)

How do I configure RealVNC or UltraVNC to get through the company firewall
or
will I have the same problem as RemoteDesktop where I can't get through the
firewall?

I appreciate any help you can give.  I've been reading through the
documentation but it is over my head - Thanks!
