Using machines (virtual or not) remote, I often have to use VNC to access the desktop, sometimes you need a graphical environment. I vnc learned a few days ago Guacamole, program that provides access to the vnc desktop via a standard Web browser that supports the HTML5 canvas tag, however.

The program works very well and quickly, the only thing a bit ‘complicated is the installation. First you need to install tomcat6. For the heart that makes the whole thing is a Java application that sends the information to the browser to display the desktop. We perform the installation:

Now that the web server is installed, you must download the program from this link. After unpacking the archive, what we are facing are some xml files (configuration files) and a war (archive containing the application itself). This is the installation procedure:

The files are now installed on the webserver but you must configure them. In particular, / etc/tomcat6/guacamole-users.xml find the pair user: password is requested that we open the application, it is not the vnc password to a password but its application. In the file / etc/tomcat6/Catalina/localhost/guacamole.xml instead contains the VNC server information:

The parameters of interest are the three listed above, and are filled with data from the VNC server. In particular, to calculate the door, it is necessary to obtain the number virtual desktop started (: 1 for example) and add it to 5900. In this case, then the server to which we connect to is: 1. To start a new vnc server of course type the command:

If this is your first time you start up a vnc server, you will be prompted for a password for access (insert is not required), what must be included in the file guacamole.xml. Now restart the web server:

and Colleghiamoci application via our browser (compatible with an eye to use the HTML5 CANVAS tag, Chromium / Chrome or Firefox are fine 5) using the link:

There will first be prompted to authenticate the program. If you have not changed the username is guacamole-users.xml ‘Guacamole’ and password ‘changeme’, of course is strongly recommended to change it. After entering the password of the VNC server (if of course has been set):

There you now have access to your vnc server is much simpler, in fact, by setting such as the Tomcat port 80, you can access the remote desktop in peace even in the presence of proxy not too lenient!

Another great review by our staff Julyano87, now we describe an application to remotely control your PC from our smartphones. Thanks Julian, your contribution is always very valuable and your reviews always well done, neat and very detailed!

I leave you with his words:

“The remote control is always a perfect way vnc to help all those operations that can not be performed directly on our vnc computers. There are, in computer science literature, many methods and programs that perform this operation very well, lately, thanks to the development in the technology of mobile phones, has become possible to manage our home PCs even by them. If the utility of this operation has always been undisputed, surely it is also useful to the opposite operation: the remote management of our mobile phones via PC. In this regard, today I’m going to review the application:

NB To use this application you must:
1) own the rights to the root
2) Have installed the java plugin in our browser
3) Install a vnc client (in the review I used RealVNC Viewer, a free application available at this address)

-Just open the application you will be facing a screen composed of a minimalist backdrop and two large buttons that have the function to start and stop the vnc server. It ‘s all we need. Tappiamo on “Start Server” and move on

already present in the core of our ESXi, specifying a password, a port for

each of the VM and logically enabling the vnc service.

Procedure (from Carry out each of the VM for which you want skilfulness this feature):

1) Make the Power Off Virtual Machine.

2) Connect to the server via SSH or using the VMware ESXi Hidden Console (alt + F1) if you are physically on the server.

3) Posizionari inside the following path: / vmfs/volumes/datastore1/CentOS 64bit (in this case we are performing the operation on a CentOS 64-bit).

4) Edit the file. Vmx, in this case called: CentOS 64bit.vmx (ESXi provides you with “you” as an editor).

5) Add at the end of this file the following lines of code:

remotedisplay.vnc.port = “port”

remotedisplay.vnc.enabled = “true”

remotedisplay.vnc.password = “password”

Replace the values ​​”Ports” (to use a vnc different port each VM) and “password” with those you deisiderati. example:

remotedisplay.vnc.port = “5901″

remotedisplay.vnc.enabled = “true”

remotedisplay.vnc.password = “esxiVnCView”

6) Exit and save (in vi press Esc and type: wq).

7) Carry out the Power On the VM.

Use a vnc client to connect to the vnc port of your virtual machine by inserting ESXi server IP (not the specific VM) and the specified port (different for each VM)) in the file. Vmx.

Hello everyone as the subject …..
I noticed that Vodafone and Wind (I only tried them) actually do not allow exercising this option.
All this serves very well into the nat that is local, so applications can not be discussed but when the handheld starts in his regular gprs acquiring ip vnc does not act
here are my steps

1) Installation remora dyndns to create a host of power;
2) Installation of mobile vnc vnc server in order to be able to manage the office and provide assistance to the handheld (in my case a Trimble TSC2)

vnc works where the doors are usually 5900, 5800 and perhaps 5500

making a port scanner on the ip of the handheld connected to GPRS or HSDPA are closed,
I now ask you if this is a solvable problem:), maybe with a different operator from wind and vodafone
Thanks to those who want to enlighten me

Real vnc, the company that developed the popular vnc remote control software, has implemented IOS systems manageable by their programs.

The company that owns the software for Virtual Network Computing has officially announced the implementation of IOS systems vnc manageable.

Recall that vnc allows you to remotely manage multiple operating systems. It is widely used in large companies to provide remote support to users.

What does this kind of implementation? RealVNC has said that you can manage our iPhone / iPod through a car stereo via the touch screen display.

Currently there are several radio that manage our iPod / iPhone, but the control is done directly from the car. And still you do not have full control dell’iDevice.

With vnc, the screen would be displayed on the display thus having complete access to your iPod or iPhone.

Hello everyone,

now playing around and trying a few things about Android I stumbled upon a project on google code that bodes well.

The project, open source, allows the installation of a binary on your system Android, which, when launched, opens port 5901 for the reception vnc connections.

For those who do not know what vnc:

The Virtual Network Computing (or vnc) is remote control software and are used to administer your remote computer by installing a vnc server on your machine and setting a proper password VNC client allows you to receive an image of the screen and provide input keyboard and mouse to the server computer.
In fact, we can manage the server computer vnc from another location, like your physical computer.

The vnc server is a convenient way to manage many computers on the network (Internet or intranet and are) using a single workstation.

They are often used to remotely control servers that have neither monitor nor keyboard.

Check the full detail here VNC Server for Android.
More info at VNC Server for Android.
More detail from here VNC Server for Android.

We begin by clarifying that with vnc does not mean a particular program, but a category of programs that allow remote control of a computer.
The acronym stands for Virtual Network Computing vnc and the common feature is the use of such software RFB protocol, Remote Frame Buffer.
In this article we use a vnc server on a Linux system on a Windows system. The information provided will be helpful, however, in any case configuration.

The scheme is simple: on the one hand to control the computer on which to install the vnc server, the computer controlling the other hand using the client component,
the so-called viewer. The two machines can be connected via a private LAN or through the public Internet.
In the latter case the work is likely to be more burdensome for the need to configure other devices such as firewalls and routers.

If the workstation client establishes a connection to the server will see the desktop of the remote machine in a window of the program.
We can act on it directly with your keyboard and mouse as if we were our physically sitting at the computer.
The cool thing about this is that the operating systems involved vnc in communication can be different: Linux, Windows or MacOSX.
We could control a Windows 2003 server on our Linux box, or, conversely, a Linux server from a Windows XP station.

If you read the article on vnc client free for all major operating systems, you’ll quickly realize that Mac OS X does not offer the wide selection they offer other operating systems (Linux in particular), and that in fact most of the software outstanding are paid.

Well, what (perhaps) did not know is vnc that Mac OS X has everything you need to connect to a vnc server and therefore does not require third-party applications (except special needs, that is).

Those jokers Cupertino fact have taken steps to integrate the default vnc client, but they thought it best to leave it in the shade, away from prying eyes. However, given the usefulness of the application to see how the case has cast it as necessary and put on display between applications. All this after having admired this
