remote access software

ok guys, here we go...

You need to forward ports...Use FPipe...it works great. Have it set on your home computer to receive connections at port 80 or 8080 or something legitimate and have it tunnel connections out to port 5800 (The java access port of VNC). Setup up your router to port forward to your computer with Fpipe running...which will connect you to port 5800. This will then connect you to your remote computer.

Diagram:

Work (Port 80 or 8080 in web browser) --External IP:80--> Home Computer (Receiving at 80) --Internal IP:5800-->VNC

Bingo! Connection!

I'd say it was more like 50/50...

although in this case I'm fairly damn certain...

the blocking of the sites is most likely done uswing a firewall proxy combination, the easiest way to see this is to just look at whether IE uses a proxy server or not...

assuming it's not them just use VNC and set the port to be port 80.. and don't worry about any of this port forwarding stuff...
 
well, thats anouther one sorted out. Hay root take a look at my site mate ;) you will be imprest.
 
This is a tutorial written by me for people like YOU.

This is for people WITH routers. If you don't have a router, you will not need to port forward.

First off, get RealVNC.

www.realvnc.com

[you're going to be using User-Mode, not Service-Mode (at least I do)]

Click download now and get the free version. You WANT to have a server running on your computer. Keep all the settings the same (but in the Input tab you may want to un-check them all if you just want people WATCHING you but not controlling you)

Also in the authentication tab turn ON "VNC Password Authentication" and click configure and enter the password you want people to use.

Keep the ports 5800 and 5900 in the connections tab and make sure that Java is enabled.

Also, goto the sharing tab and make sure that it's on "Always," this allows more than one person to connect to you.

Now goto start -> run -> type in command and hit enter. Now type in ipconfig and you should see something like this (NOTE: if command doesn't work, try cmd):

Code:
Microsoft Windows XP [Version 5.1.2600]

C:\Documents and Settings\Owner.CORYS>ipconfig

Windows IP Configuration


Ethernet adapter Local Area Connection: 

     Connection-specific DNS Suffix . :
     IP Address. . . . . . . . . . . . : 192.168.1.103
     Subnet Mask . . . . . . . . . . . : 255.255.255.0
     Default Gateway . . . . . . . . . : 192.168.1.1

C:\Documents and Settings\Owner.CORYS>


You're going to be looking at the default gateway. Goto this URL in your webbrowser:

http://DEFAULTGATEWAY HERE

So for me it would be:

http://192.168.1.1

login using the user/password that you got when setting it up (if you don't remember it and you never changed it, try a blank username and the password as "admin" or the username "admin" with password "password" and if you still can't get it, DON'T ASK ME FOR HELP, I CANNOT HELP YOU SINCE IT'S NOT MY ROUTER, ASK WHOEVER SET THE ROUTER UP! IF IT WAS YOU, YOU'RE PRETTY MUCH SCREWED)

Now goto http://portforward.com/english/route...outerindex.htm and find your router.

Remember when we did IP config? The IP you're going to be forwarding is going to be this one:

IP Address. . . . . . . . . . . . : 192.168.1.103

Forward ports 5800 AND 5900 to you! I made the mistake of only forwarding 5800 and that pissed me off for a long-time 'cuz the Java part was working but it would never connect.

Now that that's all setup, run the server (in user-mode). You should be good to go!

To allow others to view you/control you (if you have those options enabled), you need to send them a URL containing your IP address and your Java port. You also need to tell them your password.

Visit www.whatismyip.com and copy your IP. Now you need to make a special URL.

It isn't that hard, just put http:// in front of it and put :5800 after it, so if my IP is 1.1.1.1 (obviously not real), then you would do:

http://1.1.1.1:5800

and it would prompt for a password (after clicking OK), have them type in the password you gave them and voila! All done!


Also, this can be used for MANY different things. Such as what I'm using it for:

Enable every kind of input (mouse, etc.), change the password to something you'll remember. Write down your IP.

Now at school just goto your URL that we made earlier, type in password and you know have full access to your PC from school! If you enable the clipboard options that such then you can easily copy/paste documents over onto the schools PC that you forgot to print, etc.

Also, the internet from your PC is STILL FROM YOUR PC. If your school has blocks on the internet (eg: porn sites, lol) then you can visit them from your PC at home but still be on the school's computers.

Other uses of this may include helping someone with computer problems. If you're like me and you see someone post "omg my PC is being gay help me!!" and you probably COULD help them if you were at their PC, now you can send them a link to this guide and get them to set up VNC so you can help them from your PC!

K, that's all for now. If you have any questions or you found an error in this post just let me know and I'll probably help you...
