Access via internet.

[Bikram Prasad]

hello people.
I am new to noVNC and  I was successfully able to run on localhost on my Windows OS Laptop and accessed another laptop and also my laptop(loop back) without a problem. I wanted to ask if I want to access any laptop over the internet such that connection established should be via internet and not locally.
is this possible ? because as far as I know this could be achieved by have a server.
i have or can have all the requirements. 

Can anyone please guide me? Please help me out.

hello,

noVNC is a vnc client to connect to a VNC Server like UltraVnc, x11vnc, realvnc,..

For Example I have a ubuntu server which is running a noVNC and some virtual machines.

I use the noVNC to connect to a virtual machine with a vnc server.

Now you can connect over the local network and the port 6080 with a webbrowser to the vnc server.

There are many ways to connect the server over the internet.

I use a virtual private network to connect to it.

Client < -> VPN Server < -> noVNC Server -> vnc server

the client and server are connected to a vpn server, now i can connect from the client to the vnc server

Another way is to configure Your Internet Router.

You have to forward the Ports to the server.

But You need a IPv4, and a dyndns service or a static IP

The way over a vpn is much easyier.

What do you want to use it for?

Best regards

Daniel

have you used this one from Ultra VNC. name is - UVNC2ME ,  https://www.uvnc2me.com/  

I want to use same as mine. It could be web browser based or an exe file,  not doesn't matter for us.

I am  a student in my college. We(me and my friends) are working on a project. We want to use this app/software for purpose such that I can use my friends laptop and give them remote support in their laptops or desktop. Just like anydesk but an alternative.

We have or we can have all the requirements needed like a server , VPS or VPN, anything. We just want it to work.

And the router configuration part is not feasible for us. but the VPN server thing you told me would work for us. Can you guide me more or any forum or any reference where I can do the part. ? It will be much helpful if you help me out.

Thanks.

Regards.

Ok,

A VPN is the best alternative and a safe way to acces another Computer.

A easy way is to install a pfSense Firewall https://www.pfsense.org/ with a OpenVPN Server.

Here in Germany you can rent a Cloud Server for 3 € per month.

for Example https://www.hetzner.de/

the smallest one is big enough, by Hetzner you can use the pfSense Image in the robot and install it automaticly.

If you have a running VPN Server you can connect the Laptops to it.

Now you have a Network like a "local network" and now you can use any VNC Server and Client you like.

This is for example the UltraVNC Server and client
