Getting VNC set up through an SSH Tunnel between your N8x0 (possibly 770) and your MS Windows PC!

Hamachi is another option for creating a secure VNC connection to a PC that is running the software

An alternative to hamachi is n2n, which is in standard debian, or from http://www.ntop.org/n2n/

It works a bit like hamachi, the difference (in addition to being open source) is that you don't rely on some 3party company server to negotiate the vpn connection for you. Instead you do it yourself.

That means, of course, that you need access to an internet-exposed server that can run your 'supernode'. The supernode does not transport any of your traffic, it only makes it possible for your p2p vpn clients to reach each other through udp.
It's quite simple to compile and install for just about anything.

Yeah, I was a bit unclear on the matter. What I wanted to say is that VNC is an option only if the VNC server is running on the server, or for that matter a PC that can connect to a Sabre server, and serve as a tunnel, since you can not VNC directly to a web portal, which is Java. Hope this clarifies it a bit.
Though the problem with PC that is connected to Sabre and running VNC server, is that you can only access it if you're in your home network, or if you have a static IP address (which most people do not have). So the problem is what if you're on a business trip and you need to connect to Sabre, using your NIT, from say an airport?

@68Guns

you could try this: http://java.sun.com/javase/downloads/embedded.jsp

according to this thread, it works on an n800, albeit slowly.

judging by the screenshot you posted, a java vm is all you need, so if you get the embedded ARM version of javaSE running, you should be good to go.

Thanks for the info. I tried to download the program but it would not let me. You have to fill out a survey which i did but it won't let me past that.
