Sorry, I wasn't clear. I have a need to gain remote control of client PCs (Win boxes) behind a SME server via TCP/IP. Instead of using PcAnywhere I thought I would start with Tridia VNC being, open source, and no cost in early stages of use. If Tridia VNC works well and this is the best way to get remote control of PCs behind a SME we will buy or contribute to the company.
I would think there are many different ways to can control of client PCs behind SME servers, however I am just starting this process. This is not true development of the SME server, but I want to prove this works on an internal network that will mimic a remote network or networks. When I figure this out then it will lead into customizing the SME box etc for the customer. I would consider my Linux/Unix to skills to be good, however I have very little experience programming. I am currently teaching my self Perl, PHP and the details of MySQL. I am a Network Admin. that is transitioning from the NT world and have been using Linux about 2yrs. and e-smith/ SME since the 4.0 version. What I have been doing recently is taking RPMs and PHP/MySQL web apps and learning how to make them work on my SME. The next step is learning the template system and actually making fundamental changes or improvements.
