Anyone know if QNX has a product that will allow a Windows user to connect
to a QNX 4.25 system that has QNX Windows and have a virtual desktop of the
QNX system on the Windows PC (and thereby allow access to the QNX system and
3rd party applications from the Windows PC) , or if anyone else has a
product to allow this?

For QNX Windows no, for Photon Yes.

However there is a way around this but it’s ugly. QNX windows can
run inside photon (qwinph). This product as been in beta forever I think
and has gone mostly forgotten. If your desperate enough it can
be made to work.

I found

http://sourceforge.net/projects/openqnx

has Virtual Network Computing (VNC) server/client for QNX6, but no mention
of it for QNX4.XX

Would be interested to know if anyone downloads this onto a test QNX4.XX
system and if it works without mods.

That was my port to QNX6. It will NOT work on QNX4.
If there are enough demands, I will put out a version for QNX4.

VNC is for X Window. It will NOT work for QNX Windows directly.
With the help of qwinph and phinx, you will be able to get
the QNX Window session inside X Window, which can work with VNC.

Thanks Frank

Have you had many requests for a port to QNX4.XX ?

Do you do private consulting?
