Ben:
Heya. The current generation of VNC Viewers are not, AFAIK,
proxy compatible. I expect that to change with the upcoming releases,
but for now your options are two-fold:
1. The VNC-based CoPilot system (http://www.copilot.com)
2. EchoVNC (http://www.echovnc.com)
The idea of both of these approaches is to create a proxy-aware
tunnel between your VNC Viewer PC and your VNC Server PC, where the
tunnel is created via a 3rd party server. You can then establish a VNC
connection "across" this tunnel connection.
In the CoPilot system, the "relay server" is accessed by
subscribing customers. In the EchoVNC system, the relay server is
a piece of shareware (Windows/Linux/FreeBSD) called "echoServer".
Hope this helps!

Hi,
I have the latest version of realvnc running on my home machine and I am
trying to
connect to it from my machine at work. I'm not permitted to install anything
on
the work machine so I must use the java viewer through ie to connect.
When I connect I can get the little connection details box to pop up but
clicking ok
gives me a 'java.net.UnknownHostException: ...' error. I'm led to believe
that this
is due to the fact I'm behind a proxy (websense) at work. Bearing in mind I
can't
install anything on the work machine is there any way to get around this?
