Hello folks.
i like VNC an know it for more than 4 years now. Today i have seen UltraVNCSC (SingleClick) and the option to use a Repeater. Great but there is one important ting missing.
I'm normally behind a real firewall (not only a NAT Router)
and the system i want to control is also behint a Firewall.
So i need a repeater. Thats no problem, i can do that.
But I'm still looking for an option to use HTTP/HTTPS instead of port 5900. I know there are commercial products out(PCVisit, NetViewer etc)
Currently i'm investigating to use HTTPORT to tunnel VNC5900 over HTTP. but i would prefer to have a native implementation in UltraVNC. That would be gread.

VNC over HTTP
Great stuff.
Even if its beta, its important to know, that you are on the right way
It was funny, that searching to forum for for HTTP does not give a result. Maybe you should put a "currently in beta"-Page with such information to the web
i'll play with the beta and give you feedback.
Thanks Frank

Re: Using HTTP instead of 5900
You can try using the SSH port 22. I use it in conjunction with some batch scripts and this program (Reverse HTTP Starter).Frank Carius wrote:Hello folks.
