USING YOUR RIPC
connection to be made, i.e. if you are working over a private internal network your NAT (Network Address Translation) firewall settings must be configured accordingly. In other words, if the RIPC is connected to your local network environment and your connection to the Internet is over a proxy server only, failure to configure NAT correctly will make it very unlikely that the Remote Access will be able to establish the connection. This is because web proxies are not capable of relaying the RFB protocol.
If you are unsure about this issue, please consult your network administrator for an appropriate network environment.
Remote Access window attempts to display the remote screen at its optimal size, so that it may resize to match the remote screen initially, as well as following a change of the remote screen’s resolution. You can always resize the Remote Access window using your local window system.
A control bar on the lower part of the Remote Access window houses a control bar that displays Remote Access status and lets you adjust its settings. The following table defines the Remote Access control options:
