I am working on a project to develop an interactive online lab (ilab) based on the Interactive Shared Architecture (ISA). My project involves the use of a solar simulator model #SS80AAA. The solar simulator runs using a customised executable VI hosted on an embedded computer in the simulator developed by Photo Emissions Tech. In my project, I need to be able to access this VI remotely but the PET company refused to give us their source code so we could add a data socket. Accessing this VI via remote login software like Team Viewer works fine but I would like the whole lab user interface to be in a labview VI without the need for third party software like Team Viewer. Just asking if anyone knows of how I can do remote login to another computer over the internet using labview just like with Team Viewer. Thank you

Hi Denis,
do you know how TeamViewer works?
They use software on both ends of the connection and they use a 3rd computer in between. That 3rd acts as a server with a known internet address to be able to contact two computers with "unknown" IP numbers. You may find some more details at Wikipedia!

Just for clarification, are you wanting to display a remote desktop window within your LabVIEW application, or were you wanting to interface directly with a remote LabVIEW program using a LabVIEW program on your local machine?
