Forwarder client + VNC server
Posted: Mon Sep 05, 2011 8:23 amIf both administrator side and remote computer side have no public ip, use reverse connection to connect (remote side) vnc server.
Remote side:
1. Install Tight vnc on remote computer.
2. Before connection, you need to setup vnc server allow local loopback connection.
3. Tight VNC is support file transfer, no need to use samba, ftp or file sharing.
4. Start vnc as server mode, finish setup password and listen port.
5. Start up Magic Router, run as forwarder client, input agent server port and server ip, input username and password. Click start(3) to listen to finish setting.
Administrator side:
1. Start up Magic Router as listener client.
2. Input agent server port and server ip, input username and password.
3. Input Port Forward Definition
0.0.0.0,5500,127.0.0.1,5500,TCP
4. Click start(3) to listen to finish setting.
Run vnc viewer, input 127.0.0.1:5900, then vnc viewer will connect to remote side vnc server.
If remote side have more than 1 computer installed with vnc server, and you don't want create too may port forward on hardware router, you can define more than 1 listen port, to connect to different computer.
Port forward definition on listener side sample:
0.0.0.0,5500,127.0.0.1,5500,TCP
0.0.0.0,5501,192.168.1.1,5500,TCP
0.0.0.0,5502,192.168.1.2,5500,TCP
0.0.0.0,5503,192.168.1.3,5500,TCP
0.0.0.0,5504,192.168.1.4,5500,TCP
If you find vnc is not fast enough to control remote side computer, you can use mstsc (terminal server client) to connect to terminal server instead of VNC server
VNC Server is unstable, you can additionally startup Magic Router as Forwarder. Install Forwarder client as Windows service. If vnc server is not running properly, shut down and restart by Listener client > Shell cmd on forwarder.
Remote side:
1. Install Tight vnc on remote computer.
2. Before connection, you need to setup vnc server allow local loopback connection.
3. Tight VNC is support file transfer, no need to use samba, ftp or file sharing.
