Networking :: Remote server
I am using DSL on an old computer at home to connect to while I am at work. VNC works great for this. However, I have a brother in china that also connects to the computer so he can browse the internet without being filtered. I was wondering if any one has had any luck doing multiple sessions with vnc. I have been thinking about using freenx but I don't have any experience with it. Thanks in adavnce.
Your brother in China might want to try TOR and Privoxy together. They completely hide your IP addresses. I have no experience with VNC, however it can't be much quicker than TOR with Privoxy.
If your brother in China has any version of Unix + Xwindows, you could run a ssh server on dsl and let him connect trough an ssh client.
If he has Windows there are some excellent Xservers ( that actually means X-enabled ssh clients) built in Java, you can search on Google.
VNC, as far as I can tell does not support multiple sessions on one host. The linux terminal server does, as well as freenx. They are also a thin client so they are much faster then VNC.
Smooth flights...
I have two vnc server progs running. One for me and one for my friend.
Somehow java support (accessing via web browser) seems to be disabled...
I can explain later how I managed to do that...
