Reviewed application Droid VNC server for Android by Julyano87

Comments Off February 21st, 2012

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 vnc leave you with his words:

“The remote control is always a perfect way 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

In VMWare ESXi you can connect to each virtual machine via a VNC server

Comments Off February 2nd, 2012

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 different port each VM) and “password” with those you deisiderati. example:

remotedisplay.vnc.port = “5901″

remotedisplay.vnc.enabled vnc = “true”

remotedisplay.vnc.password = “esxiVnCView”

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

7) Carry out the Power On the VM.

8) 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.

VNC

Comments Off January 27th, 2012

vnc (Virtual Network Computing) is an application that is used to access and manage a computer vnc remotely, a program similar to remote desktop used in Windows.
It is based on an application server to be installed on the computer where you want to access and to install a client application on the PC from which you want to manage the computer remotely, you will be able to ‘be in LAN or the Internet: in both cases should be checked and make sure they are open the ports used for communication between 2 PC, in this case the port 5900/tcp, or the link can not ‘happen.
To handle, open and close the doors of communication with the outside of the PC you use the firewall.

iUSB Tunnel: fast access to the VNC, Tethering, and SSH

Comments Off January 10th, 2012

iUSB is a Windows utility that allows you to access in a simple and fast access to server functions vnc, Tethering, and SSH for jailbroken iPhone via USB.

The program, as well as the configuration script, contains all the clients that we need.

Use the three functions is very simple:

* Before you begin, make sure you install OpenSSH and Veency (vnc server) vnc on Cydia.

* Then download and run iTunnel (USB self-installing version) (version. Zip)

SSH

To connect the iPhone via SSH:

* Connect your iPhone to PC.

* Click on iTunnel first, then WinSCP.

* It will automatically open an instance of WinSCP. Click on profile “iPhone”, then “Yes” to any warning dialog box and then enter your password (the default is “alpine”).

The same procedure applies to Putty.

How to install and set up VNC on Apple TV

Comments Off December 22nd, 2011

vnc – Virtual Network Computing – in full, is a software that can establish a remote connection and take full control of the machine where you installed the server,
in our case, Apple TV, to administer it remotely from a PC / Mac, from vnc iPad and iPhone via the right applications.

Are based on this principle all the applications we use to remotely control our Apple TV, but unlike other “vnc” allows us to see the screen of Apple TV and decide what to do.

VNC – Virtual Network Computing

Comments Off December 2nd, 2011

vnc is an acronym that stands for Virtual Network Computing: is a program that allows you to control a remote computer through any type of network.
In very simple terms vnc does is to connect two computers directly configured appropriately giving the ability to control, by one of two machines,
the remote computer as if you were physically sitting in front of it, used if you want the GUI , mouse,
and everything that you can access with the privileges of the user with which you connect to the remote machine.

vnc was initially developed by Olivetti before being sold to research laboratories in Cambridge by AT & T,
but the mass distribution of the program only came with the birth of the project RealVNC was born as an offshoot of the original project and then be developed in a manner autonomously.
Today there are several vnc versions of vnc such as the previously mentioned RealVNC, TightVNC, UltraVNC, etc..
The program is available for all types of operating systems and for almost all types of hardware architectures.

The implementation of vnc environments for GNU / Linux is based on Xvnc, a server software that does not connect to a real X display, but uses a dummy X11 session to which multiple clients can connect.
It should be noted that X already offers the ability to natively run a program on a computer displaying the windows in the X servant of another computer. vnc, unlike this implementation,
allows connection to a GNU / Linux, even from another machine that does not have an X server installed, for example, a PC with Windows. In addition to any vnc client is great is a little more than a few hundred KB (can be conveniently contained in a floppy disk) and requires a configuration very easy to do.

x11vnc is the version of ‘vnc‘ for GNU / Linux I chose for my install Debian GNU / Linux and where you will find a guide to using the base in these pages.

A protocol, not a program vnc

Comments Off November 23rd, 2011

We begin our discussion by clarifying that vnc is not a program. Rather, we are talking about a protocol,
or a “language of communication” that must be implemented (or “understood”) by the specific software you want to provide access capabilities through this technology.

Originally created at vnc Olivetti & Oracle Research Lab (ORL), source code and specifications of Virtual Network Computer vnc have been been publicly released,
promoting the proliferation of parallel implementations (all but compatible) more and more equipped.

Among the most significant, we might remember that the Real vnc , a company founded by the original developers, TightVNC,
an open source project aimed at narrow-band connections, and Ultra vnc , which also comes under a free license but with many additional features compared to competitors .

Precisely because of the larger dowry that comes with Ultra vnc , specifically in the article we will refer to this implementation.

As already mentioned, however, the various implementations of vnc are all compatible with each other: this means that a client has, for example,
UltraVNC will connect to a remote computer which could perform RealVNC or vice versa.
