I have a Windows 2008 R2 Web edition server. Is there are way I can remote desktop connect entirely through a browser. Meaning if "Remote Desktop Connection" on my pc is blocked, I can still connect?
thanks!

I was kind of wrong first time, if you have no control over the server then you are still out of luck but if you can get admin access then you can install the 'remote desktop web connection' subcomponent of IIS's WWW service via control panel and then browse to http://whatever/tsweb Try it and let us know ok. | |||||

Perhaps use a service like Logmein.com ... Free and it uses port 80, so it should burrow through most anything....... | |||

Your Web port's open? You could enable a SSH tunnel listening on port 80. Sure, you'd have to install it on Windows and probably have it listen on a different port. That's one quick hack of a solution. Proxy 3389 via a Web proxy. The question seems off topic. | |||

You mean the outgoing connection is blocked?If that is the case you could just setup the server to use a different port, or just use another tool altogether, like logmein or vnc. Jim | |||

Old Post I know but . . . Windows Live Mesh was excellent for anyone reading this. It syncs your data across PCs but it has a hidden feature. It has remote desktop capability that is accessible via devices.live.com RD support of Mesh is required to be enabled first on the remote machine, and as far as I know a HTTPS tunnel is created (443)?? | |||
