EchoVNC is an opensource firewall-friendly remote desktop tool with support for VNC, Remote Desktop (RDP), and RAdmin servers and viewers. With it, a computer running Windows or Mac OS X can be remotely accessed regardless of firewall, router or web proxy configuration. EchoVNC is produced by Echogent Systems, Inc., and is based on the opensource UltraVNC platform.
[edit] Features
EchoVNC differs from RealVNC, TightVNC, UltraVNC and other VNC platforms in two ways. First, it is built around the echoWare toolkit, which allows it to make "firewall friendly" Viewer to Server connections via a packet-relay server, called an "echoServer". Second, the EchoVNC platform enables these firewall friendly connections not only for itself, but for other remote desktop services that are enabled alongside it, including other VNC servers, Remote Desktop and RAdmin.
