How to use FlashLight-VNC ?

Step-by-step guide:

  • Install a VNC server on the computer you want to control
  • Configure the server to accept a connect on the port you want. We will call this port VNC port
  • On the same computer, set up a server returning a flash socket policy to allow flash to connect to the VNC server (a simple one policyserver.jar). We will call this port Policy port.
  • (a socket policy server just sends an XML socket policy file on a specified port. There are samples somewhere on Adobe website)
  • On another computer, try:
  • telnet (remote computer) (VNC port). Reply should be something like "RFB003.008".
  • telnet (remote computer) (Policy port). Reply should be something like "<cross-domain-policy><allow-access-from domain="*" /></cross-domain-policy>"
  • You can now try to connect with FlashLight-VNC Viewer and it should work !
