vncviewer_ssl over proxy possible?

[Deli]

Hi,

I have the last days tried out your solution of SC III for tunneling SC
thru an corp proxy and firewall.

I have build the following enviroment for testing:


When I start SC III the connection to the repeater II in the inet will work and
when I start the vncviewer_ssl on the repeater pc I can control the pc.

So ok, but I want to have the connection on my workplace so, I must start
vncviewer_ssl on my desk and want to connect thru the proxy and the firewall to the repeaterII.
Is this a way to do this? Or cann't vncviewer_ssl work togehther with an SSLproxy?
When it is possible, how do I configure this?

Later the systems I want to control are not in my LAN, they will be in customer networks.

Thanks for replying.

Regards,
Marco

SSL repeater (standard ports)
443: act as a https website.
5500: listen to non ssl servers
5901: listen to non ssl viewers

Each channel can be used seperate, viewer/server can connect to 443
or you can mix 443 and 5500/5901


viewer<-->proxy<-->ssl repeater
server <-->proxy<-->ssl repeater

Both viewer and server connect to port 443 of the repeater, there is some internal extra code that tell the repeater if a server or viewer connect.

Server
443:server <-->proxy<-->ssl repeater
5500:server<-->repeater
Viewer
443: viewer<-->proxy<-->ssl repeater
5901:viewer<-->ssl repeater (connection to repeater is not encrypted)

You can mix, ssl server with non ssl viewer or non ssl server with ssl viewer. Non ssl is not encrypted.
You can add the dsm plugins, but the have double encryption for ssl.

Hi Rudi,

thanks for your reply. Thus is an feature that should work, great.

The server works with this, but with the viewer I have an problem
that he doesn't use the https proxy in our corp in my opinion.

So my first question was that this feature is buildin. Now is the
question why the vncviewer_ssl.exe doesn't use the https proxy?
Can I make an connection log or something else to see if this
connection will be made over an proxy or he tries this directly?

if i use the non SSL repeater i can already use the port 443 but is there SSL connexion or i must use the SSL repeater?

The ssl repeater has an extra SSL server. without ssl server it can not
make ssl connections.

Viewer and SSL.
This require a special SSL viewer. The standard viewer is not capable
of doing SSL.
