What is Remote Assistance
RA is a way for a LinuxMCE user to give access to a remote developer or other helpful person without opening ports in a firewall, without the need for dynamic DNS or similar.
RA opens a SSH connection to the LinuxMCE remote assistance server (ra.linuxmce.org) and provides a tunnel into the user's system.
The User System
Relevant files on the user's LinuxMCE system are (all in /usr/pluto/bin):
- SetupRA_Special.sh
- RA_Change_Password.sh
- RA-Handler.sh
- RA_KeepsPortsAlive.sh
- RA.sh
- RemoteAccessTunnel.sh
- SetupRemoteAccess.sh
The LinuxMCE RA Service System
On the service provider system (ra.linuxmce.org) the only thing I could found so far is
- get_ra_ports.php
