auto reverse connect to set ip

Post by ramar2 »

Hi - looking some help for this.

I'm working on creating a solution where by my clients can reverse connect to my helpdesk supports.

So far i have done this - created an simple install script using inno setup to install vncserver on the server and automatically reverse connect to my servers public IP address. On the server i'm forwarding connections on that port to a helpdesk PC withing my internal network. I'm also using the 'Add new client on start' patch from tnatsni on the Ultravnc sourceforge patch site to enable vncserver to start using -connect without first having to run with -run. that all works fine.

What i now need to do is this:
In inno setup i've created the clients link with the -connect 196.x.x.x::5500 paramaters. For some reason people keep changing these properties to see if they can connect to their home pc etc. I would like to know if i can set the ip and port i want the client to use within the vncserver source code so its not nessesary to put the paramaters in the start link.

2. Futher on i would like to be able to modify it so that on starting the client they are requested to input a port number which will determine which helpdesk support they connect to (the ip will be the same in all cases). I know this can be done differently using the repeater but i don't to use that at this stage. I would rather forward three or four ports on my router to different helpdesk support users.

I am not a programmer by any means but can cut and paste and compile!
If anyone is able to help out i would appreciate it.
