What is the DynGate software program?

Answer 1

TeamViewer is a remote control software that is based on the VNC project, or better, on the UltraVNC remote control solution, which is itself based on RealVNC. TeamViewer is free software and is licensed under the GPL. So TeamViewer is an open source project. You may download the complete source, modify it and use it however you like, as long as you comply with the GPL. TeamViewer enables remote connections based on a TCP/IP connection over port 5900. That means, to connect two TeamViewer clients, you connect to a partner`s PC on port 5900. In many cases this will only be possible within a local network, firewall settings often deny TCP/IP connections. Another problem are local IP addresses: Most LANs use NAT gateways to translate internal IPs to external ones - which makes it very difficult to connect to a partner within another local network. DynGate is our solution for that problem: DynGate allows to route any TCP/IP connection over a http tunnel, which means any traffic is routed like "regular" internet web site access - which allows almost anybody to connect to PCs as long as an Internet connection is available! DynGate is a completely separate software that communicates with TeamViewer just over an internal TCP/IP socket connection. In later releases DynGate will also be able to tunnel data connections for other software beside TeamViewer. APPLES TO: TeamViewer 2, TeamViewer 1
