Remote View without Control
We need a solution where we can invite someone to view our desktop without controlling it.
I don't think Remote Assistance will work because:
1. We can't use MSN Chat.
2. Not all systems are guaranteed to be Windows XP.
We can't use www.gotomypc.com. I have no idea why, but our internal network security even blocks that site.
All the sites I've visited focus on Remote Control not viewing. I need a good viewing solution that doesn't allow control and works through our various firewalls.
I've Googled but not come up with any definitive solutions yet, so I'm hoping to leverage your experiences in this area. I need a solution sooner than I thought.
Thanks!

Well I haven't use it that way since I don't have to get outside our network. But my guess is that it should be pretty easy to set up on the firewall end by allowing vnc ports to be used. You may configure vnc to use any ports you want instead of the default ones. You would have to test it to make sure it works well with a firewall.
