Hello,
 
I'm trying to use UltraVNC with the Repeater server over port 80. The
configuration I used is: 
* Mode II enabled
* Accept on port 5901 
* Listen on port 80

I reconfigured my router (with static IP) to forward all port 80
requests from the internet to the machine hosting the repeater (I'm not
using any web server on that IP address), and setup the OneClick VNC
Server (SC version that can be built using the site) to access the
repeater at my IP address over port 80, with some kind of IDs in it.

So far so good! It works like a charm and bypasses a lot of firewalls on
my client machines.
BUT, with certain firewalls that actually inspect the contents of the
HTTP package (post 80 is used for HTTP) I can not get through. I guess
the repeater and the UltraVNC viewer/servers does not actually send a
"normal" http request - resulting in disgarded package by the firewalls.

Any ideas?

Thanks!
