vnc proxy

[Mark Ceulemans]

Wow, thanks.
The problem is that there are many machines in the second cloud, and 
this means opening a port for every single machine in this cloud.

I also found a simple workaround.

1. On the central machine, install FreeProxy (a simple HTML proxy 
server), and have it reroute requests from NIC1 to machines in the local 
network

2. on your local desktop, install ProxySwitcher (a proxy switching 
tool), and define a proxy for the central machine.

3. From your browser, connect to the ipaddress in the local subnet, and 
this request will be routed via the central machine to the manager. 
(connect to the port 5800).

This works fine (as far as I can see)

Thanks for your support,

Cheers,
