Wanted: Recommendations for Proxy Server
I have a VPN client on a computer. Unfortunately, I am not, as a matter of my client's security policy, allowed to install that VPN client on additional computers in my home office.
This is inconvient. I would like to use remote desktop from additional computers in my home office. Can someone recommend a proxy server I can install on the computer running the VPN client that would allow me to use Remote Desktop from any of my home office machines and log into my client's machines at my client's site via the VPN client?
I think Apache HTTPD has this feature but I am not sure if this is the ideal tool. I've never set it up this way and I don't know what ports remote desktop uses anyway. Can someone tell me what ports remote desk top uses and recommend a low cost proxy server?
Thanks,
Siegfried
