Does Remote Software into Amiga exist?

Hi all

I would love to be able to remote access my Amiga from work or elsewhere.

Is it possible? If so, what and where?

@Mikey_C

Maybe it worth to look for vnc server. (Maybe on os4depot? I cannot check from work, sorry.)

@Mikey_C

If VNC works under AOS4, then that's your solution. I have used it under 3.9 a couple of years ago, and it worked just fine. It was little fun to remote my Amiga from work.

Lets see if I can find any links.

Here's a server for the Amiga:

Here's a client for your other machine:

Maybe that's something to start with.

@FihmpenRouk

i am trying to setup amivnc, but i get this output;

AmiVNC4 -e -v
AmiVNC OS4 2.0.2 Jul 26 2005
(c) 1999-2004 stephane.guillard@intest.info
main : parameter values :
- listen port set to 5900

main : Creating listener socket
main : Binding socket on port 5900
AmiVNC - main : bind() error (48)
AmiVNC session closed
AmiVNC halted

any ideas anyone?

@spotUP

it seem that port 5900 it's already in use, or
maybe it must configured in internet services

@spotUP

heck you are having better luck than I am

I am getting nowhere with it

My Amiga shares an internet connection with the PC, I have been advised to open a port for VNC

However, Amivnc OS4 flavour from OS4depot does not contain the HTML file on usage. Looking at St?phane Guillard website for amivnc http://s.guillard.free.fr/AmiVNC/AmiVNC.htm

It seems that it is command line driven with a gazillion options (Well, okay not that many, but you get the point)

(Wish there was a GUI for it)

Any help at all would be very welcome

Many thanks

@Mikey_C

Well, I didn't succeed either this time, but it's a long time since I used it and I havn't used it more than one time I think. Maybe I was lucky.

Well. It wasn't installed on my 4000, so I tried installing it as said in the guide.

I then started the prefered screendepth from storage/montors.

I changed password tooltype from Workbench.

I started avnc from Workbench.

I started a RTG program (BetaScan actually) and selected the vnc-screen as screen in BetaScans screenmode selector.

I switched over to the PC and started the VNC-client giving the IP of my Amiga and the password.

The connection was established, but I got no picture as far as I could see. Don't know why. I will see if I can find some time to test this a little better some other day perhaps.

Sorry, being a little repetitititititive here.
