Do the wss connection from the webserver that hosts vnc.html

[Alexander Hellen]

Hi!

First let me say, I'm not an expert, so this may be a "not so smart" question.

I have two hosts, host1 and host2.On host1 a VNC Server , websockify and apache reverse proxy are running. On host 2 only the "Web Client" for noVNC is running (vnc.html and subfolders).

I connect from a client to the websocket on host1 via the vnc.html frontend on host2.com (so host1.com is the server of the websocket given in the configuration box). So host2 does exactly the same thing as the novnc demo on the website (https://novnc.com/noVNC/vnc.html).

Everything works fine, but the connection to the websocket (host2) is made by the client. So if the firewall of the client blocks the url of the websocket (host1.de), I can't get a connection.

My question is, is it possible to do the connection to the websocket ( host2)  by host1 and pass it throught to the client?

Any hint is appreciated. Cheers,

Alex.
