Remote Assistance Identification Description

Remote Assistance Identification 1.07 is a software that tries to connect itself to a remote server using the HTTP protocol. Due to high number of clients we have, and need to maintain high quality of our support service we decided to use some kind of Remote Desktop. We choose VNC remote administration tools. Althrough VNC is good solution, we noticed problem from the very beginning: it lacks easy management fo remote users which are not available on static public IP's. We constantly had a problem to find out when user, who requested assistance, is online, and what is his IP we can use to access his computer. Usualy, we had to keep user online on phone line, and make him connect via other line and then tell us whether he is connected and what is his IP. We found out solution in writing quite small and simple app to help finding this information fast, reliable, and without involving our clients more that necessity to connect to the internet. That aplication is Remote Assistance Information. We call it RAI, for short. It works quite simple: it stays in systray and tries to connect to remote server using HTTP protocol. If there is internet connection, it will provide information about user online status and his ID. Our support staff can check the status by simply visiting our site. They can see which users are online, and what IP address (or addresses) they use. Then, connection with the VNC client is easy. Security We already spoke about security. This app deals with information about clients that should be treated as private and kept confidential. It would not be vise to allow anybody to see which of your clients are online, what are their computer names, which IP's they currently use, which operating systems and possibly even more information which you provide in notes. Make sure that this information is kept private.
