Hi all.

Usually we require vnc to take remote sessions. There was one another i think it was called xdrp or xrdp. I am asking this out of curiosity, is there any way to take remote sessions using http. Like in web conferencing, we invite users to join the conference and then we are able to share desktop. Is there any way to do this on one-to-one basis ? is such a technology exists for linux (for any disto) ?

Look into http://www.bigbluebutton.org or get a community copy of DimDim if you can find it. These are GoTo Meeting/WebEx kinds of software you can setup meeting and do file and desktop sharing. Fo r aone-to one if you just want on demand network sharing look at UltraVNC I think they have a way to do this but it might only work on Windows clients.
