html5 - websockify, noVNC in wrap mode -


i need convert web page requiring viewing x window using vncviewer applet html5 based vnc client. worry nsapi desupported in near future on browsers (mainly chrome) disables applet functions.

i looked @ novnc , websockify , got work. but, here problem: still have client on ie8 not support canvas. clients has java enabled , won't changing higher version of ie or chrome, still want them keep running applet version. running websockify in wrap mode, seems can no longer directly connect vnc server (not through websockify) keep applet clients functional.

e.g. command run websockify is: run 5903 --wrap-mode=ignore -- vncserver -geometry 1024x768 :3

after this, tried use regular vncviewer client connect port 5903, , it's rejected. websockified page can view vnc window. if change 5903 5902, can use regular vncviewer client view window @ 5903, websockified page can't view @ 5902.

is there hope keep concurrent connection vnc server available (websockify , regular connections)?

thank!

i recommend starting vnc server (not using websockify wrap mode). run websockify target vnc port. java client should continue target regular vnc port. novnc client should connect websockify listen port (which connect vnc server target).

the problem wrap mode original port "hidden" (moved random high port , accessible localhost only) , websocket port exposed. still need regular vnc port accessible java client.
