Suggestion: HTTP tunneling option

Post by sebastiannielsen »

Why not a HTTP tunneling option in SC to cope with very restrictive firewalls?
The HTTP tunneling could work in a way that it POSTs and GETs to/from a CGI script on a HTTP server.

yes its nice feauture i was thinking too
not only for SC but for entire UVNC

if you need it for now, a work around you can make a batch with gnu http tunnel

i.e. a batch start executes port mapping , then executes SC..

Then you better use https and the connect....only drawback is that the viewer
need to listen on port 443.

This require no special cgi, and work over a corporate proxy
At least when the data is encrypted so he can filter rfb :)
