Chapter 4, Connecting From A Web Browser
This chapter explains how to connect to VNC Server and control a host computer using VNC Viewer for Java. All you need to do this is a Java-enabled web browser; you do not need to install or run any programs. This may be useful if you are at an Internet café, for example.
VNC Viewer for Java establishes an encrypted, authenticated connection to a host computer in the same way as VNC Viewer. You can use your mouse and keyboard to control the host computer exactly as you would using VNC Viewer. Note, however, that not all of VNC Viewer’s functionality is available.
Note: For more information on differences with VNC Viewer, start with VNC Enterprise Edition 4.5 connectivity.
