Question : conneting to VNC from behind proxy

I installed ultravnc at home, and it's been working fine everywhere except for where I am now.  This puzzled me until I remembered that here we're behind a proxy, so I'm guessing that's preventing me from connecting to my home computer from here.  when I type http://myipaddress:5800, the applet loads, prompts for password, and then displays a "network error: could not connect to server: myipaddress:5900".  I was wondering if there was a way to make this work.  If you can help, thanks, it's greatly appreciated.

Answer : conneting to VNC from behind proxy

To connect to your VNC from behind a restricted proxy, you need to setup additional layer of tunneling software. As long as you are still allowed to access SSL/https than this can be done. You will need to do the following

ON SERVER:
- install ORENOSP:

- generate certificate using the same software package
- configure sproxy.conf to point to your VNC service
- open port 443 (https)

ON CLIENT
- configure otunnel.conf (found from same website location)
- make sure your otunnel.conf is consistence with sproxy.conf
- run otunnel.exe -c
- run your remote client

with this setting it is even more secure than your previous setting since you are using SSL/https and your privacy is protected as well.

Good Luck
