Hi all,
Does anyone know how to implement a VNC viewer and/or remote desktop functionality on a page in the OMI?
Thank you for any assistance.
Hi all,

Hi, I'm not aware of any existing component that you could use to enable this in OMI.
So you need to find or create your own component such as a .Net/WPF user control, or even better use the OMI Toolkit.
There are resources online on how to achieve this in general, but I would believe that you can find what you are looking for online.
But it is a very intriguing challenge!
Perhaps you could get creative and use the embedded WebBrowser and use RDWeb (if possible).
Just like Richard Köhlerstrand wrote, I did that exact thing with Remote Desktop by creating a WPF user control to wrap it, then I was able to host in OMI and it was working.
Note: you will need to setup your OS environment to make it work. I wrote a document about it but I am unable to upload it here.
Another option is to use the Web Browser Widget in OMI and configure the web based RDP on your terminal service machine. Microsoft started supporting the web based RDP from Windows Server 2019 onwards.

Hope this would help.
The solution using a WPF user control sounds promising, I will try to make that work. Thank you.
I unfortunately cant use web based RDP as the remote desktop i am attempting to connect to do not run windows.
IDO BARZILAI Can you in some way link to that document that you have made about this issue? I am having quite some trouble reaching a solution with the development of the Remote Desktop functionality in the WPF user control.
I am very new to the whole WPF thing, so i am looking for any help i can get.
Thank you in advance.
Hi Hans, do you have a shared folder that I can upload the document and source code example?
I will try to connect with you, so we can take it in a private chat. I don't have experience with using shared folders through web.
