Re: Logmein beta for linux clients
yeah, sort of. but i don't get anywhere near the same functionality and it still means an open port. logmein uses nat to a central service so the firewall at home is not really open. and its an fton easier and works well with windows and mac systems as well.

Re: Logmein beta for linux clients
If you use OpenVPN, you simply open a tunnel to the firewall, and it's as if you just plugged into the local lan on the other side. Works from/to any platform. I don't see what logmein gains you. What functionality? What open port? Why use logmein?

Logmein contols a desktop through a RDP type browser plugin and allows a remote support representative to follow all your actions. The closest thing is a vnc connection, or a RDP client, but it is still not truely browser based. There are applications like BEef, which are exploits that allow control of systems through a browser using javascript, but it's still not comparable really to logmein, which is very similar to a Live Person cookie/application. Kaseya agents DO WORK just like this for Linux, OS X and Novell as well as Citrix/Microsoft, but it's pricey! -- -Eric 'shubes' --- PLUG-discuss mailing list - PLUG-discuss@lists.plug.phoenix.az.us To subscribe, unsubscribe, or to change your mail settings: http://lists.PLUG.phoenix.az.us/mailman/listinfo/plug-discuss -- Skype: (623)239-3392 ATT: (503)754-4452 www.it-clowns.com Only the dead have seen the end of war. -Plato --- PLUG-discuss mailing list - PLUG-discuss@lists.plug.phoenix.az.us To subscribe, unsubscribe, or to change your mail settings: http://lists.PLUG.phoenix.az.us/mailman/listinfo/plug-discuss
