VNC software to Embed in website.

!GasAxe! · 17 Jan 2008 at 14:15

Hi,

Hope someone can help, I'm looking to get some software so I can remote link into peoples PC's on the odd occcasion to help them out.

What im after is something i can put on some webspace were they can go double click it giving me access. I've come accross this (http://www.netsupport247.com) which is excactly what im after but its £330 a year and for the ammount i will use it its not cost effective.

I thought realvnc did something similar but i cannot find it on there website.

Any suggestions welcome

Cheers

User downloads and runs file, it intiates the connection and you can remote admin their PCs

They do a ICT rescue type of software that does that

EchoVNC - get their InstantVNC package for the machines to remote-access, spend £20 on the EchoServer to host it yourself (demo available to play with/use just limits to 5-10mins connection then need to re-connect) and job's a good'un. Also tunnels RAdmin/RDP if you want it to, and no silly IP addresses to remember/work out

So RDP is the same thing as XP's Remote Desktop Connection? :confused:

Yup - RDP stands for Remote Desktop Protocol

We're currently working on a HelpDesk product that requires no installation on the users part, although it's still in the early development stages and won't be out for a while. That said, you can script a silent install that will install VNC onto their machine, and configure a reverse connection to your machine, and when you're done you can run an uninstall script. requires no configuration on their part except from downloading a couple of files and double clicking.
