| Hi, Just need one info.
Does anybody have any idea, I need to capture the desktop of a remote
user, as part of my project, I need a web-based application for this.
If you have any idea regarding this, please do let me know.
Thanks,
Rajesh

| Rajesh,
I may be misunderstanding your question, but you want to capture
something OUTSIDE of the web browser window? I hope this IS NOT
possible via a web-based application (and I think is not). If this is
done inside an intranet or some other controlled environment, you could
use a remote desktop client/server to do so (but this doesn't have any
relationship to a web-based application, really), but unless you are in
such an environment, I don't think the idea will work. But, again, I
may be misunderstanding the question.

Yes. VNC is the standard cross-platform software for viewing and
controlling remote desktops on Windows, Linux, *nix, and OSX. Most
versions of it can be run as a Java applet in a web browser, so while
you need to install a VNC server on the remote computer you want to
control, you only need a Java-capable browser on the controlling side.
Search Google for VNC for more details.
In what way is this a CGI question?

| Chris,
I knew, this is no way related to CGI,
I just need some info, so posted my question here, hoping that incase
someone has got any input, I can use that.
Anyway, thanks for your mail.

VNC, has a Java Applet client and webserver to host it. Nothing to do
with Perl or CGI though.
