How To Remote Control A Clients Computer Through Internet
Nov 16, 2011
I am trying to understand how to remote control a clients computer through the internet.
I have Symatec PCanywhere installed on both When i'm on the same connection (wireless internet).I can get it to work no problem.However when I try to remote in using a different internet connection it does not go through.
I've done some research and found out that instead of using the IP address it gives me (dynamically) [192.168.2.5] i need to aquire the WAN IP address from a website or through the router. As well as configuring virtual server through the router, and enable port forwarding in some way or another for specific ports.
I have an in-law with early stages of temporal lobe dementia. She lives at home alone and is still pretty independent but among other things she is really struggling with anything to do with times and dates. Diaries and the like are increasingly hard to manage. I am wondering about a technological aid. She has a WIFI network at her home. If there was a way I could set up a MONITOR on the wall that could display say a diary or calendar that I could update and change remotely?. I'd need a PC set up there to run the display, and then connect to that over the internet and control what it shows.Either way it needs to be something I initiate and control as needed, so she doesn't have to do anything like send a remote assistance request, because she can't really manage that.
We have two ASA 5500 series Firewalls running 8.4(1). One in New York, another in Atlanta.They are configured identically for simple IPSecV1 remote access for clients. Authentication is performed by an Radius server local to each site.
There are multiple IPSec Site-to-Site tunnels on these ASA's as well but those are not affected by the issues we're having.First, let me start with the famous last words, NOTHING WAS CHANGED.
All of a sudden, we were getting reports of remote users to the Atlanta ASA timing out when trying to bring up the tunnel. They would get prompted for their ID/Password, then nothing until it times out.Sames users going to the NY ASA are fine.After extensive troubleshooting, here is what I've discovered. Remote clients will authenticate fine to the Atlanta Firewall ONLY IF THEY ARE USING A WIRED CONNECTION.
If they are using the wireless adapter for their client machine, they will get stuck trying to login to Atlanta.These same clients will get into the New York ASA with no problems using wired or wireless connections.Windows 7 clients use the Shrewsoft VPN client and Mac clients use the Cisco VPN client. They BOTH BEHAVE the same way and fail to connect to the Atlanta ASA if they use their wireless adapter to initiate the connection.
Using myself as an example.
1. On my home Win 7 laptop using wireless, I can connect to the NY ASA with no issues.
2. The same creditials USED to work for Atlanta as well but have now stopped working. I get stuck until it times out.
3. I run a wire from my laptop to the FiOS router, then try again using the same credentials to Atlanta and I get RIGHT IN.
This makes absolutely no sense to me. Why would the far end of the cloud care if I have a wired or wireless network adapter? I should just be an IP address right? Again, this is beyond my scope of knowledge.We've rebuilt and moved the Radius server to another host in Atlanta in our attempts to troubleshoot to no avail. We've also rebooted the Atlanta Firewall and nothing changed.
We've tried all sorts of remote client combinations. Wireless Internet access points from different carriers (Clear, Verizon, Sprint) all exhibit the same behavior. Once I plug the laptops into a wired connection, BAM, they work connecting to Atlanta. The New York ASA is fine for wired and wireless connections. Same with some other remote office locations that we have.
Below I've detailed the syslog sequence on the Atlanta ASA for both a working wired remote connection and a failed wireless connection. At first we thought the AAA/Radius server was rejecting us but is shows the same reject message for the working connection. Again, both MAC and Windows clients show the same sequence.Where the connection fails is the "IKE Phase 1" process.

Is their a program i can use to see who is doing what then disable their monitor keyboard and mouse. I work for my college/student and i am the assistant admin, my teacher gave me full admin privileges. I would like to have this as untended program where they cant change any thing stays hidden in the back ground. I used team viewer but i have to have them to log each one.
I have some iMacs that I manage for, in addition to my primary PC computers, such as my Toshiba Windows 7 laptop, which is what I am currently most concerned with. What I would like to do, is Remote Desktop Control (I'll abbreviate that as RDC) these mac computers through the network from my Windows PC. I am aware that this is possible with either Google Chrome, or by checking an OSX setting that will allow for VNC applications to connect, but I would prefer it if there was some way to RDC these iMacs from my Windows laptop without needing to change their settings or install software-something like how Mac-Mac RDC connections work, where I can just select a computer from the network, type a password, and go.
I am developing the system remote control desktop from mobile phone through internet. I want how the connection is established between mobile phone and desktop through internet? What is the exact process of connection and internal structure of connection
TiVo and Pioneer offer remote control software for iOS and Android equipment. I've been using both for a while, and it's great stuff. When hardwired to the router. Behind the DAP-1522, not so much.The DAP works like a champ in every respect except in this application. Everything attached to it can hit the internet- the TiVo, the Samsung smart TV, my laptop via 1000baseT, and to anything else networked in the house. Presently the iPad can control the Tivo, but not the Pioneer. But Airplay on the iPad connects to the Pioneer with no problem. And then the iPad remote can control the Pioneer again.Another example is that the iPad can't find the TiVo, but my Android phone can. Usually.
I have 2 computers (one is using windows 7, other is using windows xp), one switch and router. I don't have physical access to router. I have plugged the cable from router to switch, and connected both PC's to switch and now I have internet on both PC's.My question is, can I "control" or share files on windows xp with Windows 7 (main computer) and in same time have access to internet? Or to use windows 7 to connect to internet?
I've some strange problems with multiple ASA (NEM) VPN remote clients (v8.4.5). On the HQ I've an ASA5510 (v8.4.5) with multiple NEM's connected to it. The group policy used on the HQ is configured for split tunneling. Now here's the problem;
The remote ASA (NEM) constructs easily a VPN connection to the main location; it seems that everything works well. Traffic through most of the tunneled networks works perfectly. Traffic to certain subnets or hosts brings me into trouble, there is no traffic flowing through the tunnel at all!
When using the command "show crypto ipsec sa | i caps|ident|spi” I can see all of the tunneled subnets. The subnets that works perfecly gives me the correct "local and remote ident" output. The subnets with problems gives me wrong values in the "remote ident". The remote ident should be the IP address of the inside LAN (of the remote NEM) and not the IP address of the ouside interface (of the remote NEM). How is this posible?
Here's is the crypto ipsec sa output:
Result of the command: "show crypto ipsec sa | i caps|ident|spi"
local ident (addr/mask/prot/port): (10.200.60.0/255.255.255.0/0/0) <-- this is the good subnet of the inside interface (NEM) remote ident (addr/mask/prot/port): (10.100.2.2/255.255.255.255/0/0) <-- this is the good subnet (HQ) #pkts encaps: 54712, #pkts encrypt: 54712, #pkts digest: 54712 #pkts decaps: 31893, #pkts decrypt: 31893, #pkts verify: 31893 #PMTUs sent: 0, #PMTUs rcvd: 0, #decapsulated frgs needing reassembly: 0 current outbound spi: A4FA947A
I am using Cisco 2911 router , i configured remote client in that . i need to provide the static ip to the remote users instead of providing from the dhcp pool. is it possible? if it is how we can do that.
When I first installed my wireless router a few years ago, I did it with my old computer which has Windows XP as its operating system. It is on this computer that the Linksys "admin control panel" is installed, which allows me see what computers are connected through the router, see what the settings of the router are, etc. I recently purchased a new computer which has Windows 7 as the operating system. As I transfer programs and documents from my old computer to my new computer, I have run into the problem of how to transfer the Linksys "admin control panel" from my old computer to my new computer. The original installation CD for Linksys won't work with Windows 7 so I don't even have that as a starting point. I tried going to the web-based admin site, but can't access it from either computer.
We have remote VPN setup with Cisco ASA 5510. By using VPN filter, I can follow the guide and make client to use all necessary server services. (dns, ssh etc). However, is there any way that allow inside server access remote VPN client's services, ex. let inside server ssh to remote VPN client? Consider remote access VPN filter ACL's syntax, I have to always let source be the "remote VPN client PC", the dest is "inside firewall server", how can I let the other way traffice going?
site A : ASA 5510 VPN gateway for remote users LAN 192.168.192.0/22 site B : ASA 5505 LAN 192.168.208.0/22
Both sites are connected through a site to site VPN.Remote clients (AnyConnect/VPN client) can connect to Site A LAN and see machines on LAN A but cannot see Site B LAN.
Here is a part of my configuration :
On Site A (ASA 5510) -------------------------------- name 192.168.192.0 SiteA_Internal_Network name 192.168.208.0 SiteB_Internal_Network name 192.168.133.0 VPNPool_AnyConnect name 192.168.133.32 VPNPool_VpnClient
I have an ASA 5520 8.2(3) and allowing my remote client-to-site-vpn clients to access resources directly connected to my ASA on separate lower security interfaces (not the outside) besides just clients on my internal networks. Someone mentioned to me configuring 'VPN on a stick' however from what I've read this seems to be only applicable when it comes to split-tunneling back out the outside interface (could be off on that). Is this possible on other lower security interfaces as well, and if so what would a mock config that accomplishes that look like (acl's, nat, etc)? Also, if I want internal users to be able to connect to these remote clients once they are active, are there any nat statements necessary (such as nonatting them) or are the vpn clients just seen as internal clients from the rest of the internal network's standpoint by default?
I am setting up a new remote access VPN using the traditional IPSec client via ASA 5515-X runnning OS 8.6.1(5). We require to provide each client multiple DNS suffixes, but are only to provide a single DNS suffix in the group policy.I have tested using an external DHCP server, but using our Windows Server 2008 infrastructure and Option 119 the list is not provided to clients, and I have read that Windows 7 clients may ignore this option anyway.
I have a RV082 and several of my remote laptops cannot access my server using its domain name. It can be accessed using its internal ip address. The issue is that you can log onto the server using remote access and the ip however you cannot use any shortcuts using the domain name. You can see the server with the domin name however no access path is available. This is only on a few remote user laptops. Others work perfectly.
I have been asked to set up remote access VPN on an ASA 5505 that I previously had no invlovement with. I have set it up the VPN using the wizard, they way I normally do, but the clients have no access to anything in the inside subnet, not even the inside interface IP address of the ASA. Thay can ping each other. The remote access policy below that I am working on is labeled VPNPHONE, address pool 172.16.20.1-10. I do not need split tunneling to be enabled. The active WAN interface is the one labeled outside_cable. [code]
We are configured the Remote IPSec VPN on cisco 1800 series router.The Clients are able to login to VPN and access the local corporate network Servers . But VPN Clients are not able to communicate with other VPN clients using their VPN Adapter IP.
Components used : CISCO VPN Client 5.7 Router 1800 Series
Im facing with some DHCP lease issue and its like this,Our Cisco 2951 edge router is configured with local dhcp pool for a set of remote users when they connect through Cisco VPN which was working fine until we planned to change it to a Windows box that is configured for DHCP.The basic idea now is to relay the DHCP requests that are coming from the remote clients through Cisco VPN to the DHCP Windows server. So we added the scope on the server and changed the client config on the router as follows (highlighted is the dhcp relay config). [code]
I've got a Cisco 1941 setup working fine for Cisco Anyconnect. Clients can connect to local resources fine. The issue I have is I need the remote clients to access a third party IP address but to do so they must do it through the VPN. At the moment only local resources are accessed across the vpn and if they need internet they use their own internet connection they are connecting with.I've added the below to make sure traffic going to the IP is going across the VPN.
While trying to connect to WiFi at remote sites APs, the connection is getting time out.User are getting error as 'Unable to connect to <WiFi-SSID>' The APs at corporate office are functioning properly and user are able to connect to the APs.
My exchange server hosts remote outlook clients and remote web access
no one on the remote side can access my exchange server
internal mail flows in bound and out bound.
My iphone can not access the exchange server either.
When the Cisco 851 was online all the above worked great. Nothing changed on the remote client side just put the ASA 5505 in service.
I am new to the ASSA 5505 family. Had a reseller configure the router but unable to get them at this hour. Called Cisco support but they are closed at this time also.
I am not sure if what I am trying to accomplish is possible. On my internal network I have the following VLANs setup (102, 104, 106) and they map one to one to a subnet (ie: 102 = 192.168.102.0/23, 104 = 192.168.104.0/24, etc).All interVLAN routing is done on a 3560 via vlan SVI. Connected to the 3560 via a routed port is a ASA 5510. The routed port has IP 192.168.100.1 and the ASA interface on the other side of that routed port has IP 192.168.100.2. I use 802.1x on the wired network to assign users (based on their department) into a specific VLAN. I want to extend this concept to Remote VPN access. Therefore I setup multiple Group Policies (policy is applied based on an LDAP attribute) where each policy defines a different DHCP scope. This has successfully allowed me to login wtih different users who get assigned to different Group policies and they obtain the correct DHCP IP address from the internal DHCP server (ie: an engineering person logins remotely and gets an IP in 192.168.102.0 range). However the issue (and as I was planning this out I knew this would come up) is that traffic can be routed out from the VPN client to its destination but there is no return path.
I'm working with AnyConnect for the first time (my prior experience is with IPSec client) and I have multiple remote users who connect to a 5520 via AnyConnect client; they need to print to each others' shared printers but currently have no connectivity between each other.
Can I configure the 'intra-interface' command to enable connectivity between remote clients, or is there more that needs to be done to enable this, presuming that it can be done at all?
I have a situation where I need to have remote users vpn into my ASA 5510 and then turn around and hit a site to site tunnel. Now when I am in our office I can hit the site to site vpn fine. When I am at home and vpn to the asa I can not get to the site to site resources. Do you see where my config is incorrect? result of the command: "show run"
This is a home setup. I have a router connecting to my ISP and a home computer (Linux) with a website (not registered). I can access it from any computer in the LAN without a problem, but not from outside the LAN.I have port 80 and the LAN-side IP address open to the outside. I know the ISP-side IP address of the router.
I am trying to use my computer running Windows XP Home to remote desktop into my computer running Windows 7 Ultimate over the internet.The computer I am trying to connect to is listening on port 3389, has all sort of firewall exceptions sorted and is enabled to accept remote connections. The computer I am trying to use to connect has no firewall currently (I have disabled it just to get this working).
And yet when I try and connect using the ip address of the host computer I receive the message "remote desktop cannot connect to the remote computer for one of the following reasons"... and so on.
i'm trying to write a simple batch file to make my life easier. We have a few dozen Aix Boses that we telnet into and about 70 as400 Swift systems we telnet into. i was starting on a batch file like the one below where i could run it, type in the system and it log me over.What I want to add is for it to put in my user name. (if i could draw a password from a excel file that would be fantastic but id settle for just my user name). I have tried - l (username) at the end of telent and it didn't work. also tried -a. i keep getting the box with user name/password and there both blank. how i can get it to type in my user name?
here is my script.
@echo off set /p name= What system are you logging into? telnet %name%
i tried start script.vbs as another attempt using this info
view a history of IPs that have connected to my computer. Specifically those that accessed my computer through a remote desktop connection? I believe I can check and see the ip while someone is connected but not after they disconnected.
