Hey Jaix, i'm Gonzalo from Colombia

I'm a coder, i develop more than 500 utils and apps for terminal server and citrix
.... i have a product called Galeon that is a "clon" of terminal server with
shell replacement, full duplex sound, universal printer driver, etc ...


I want to develop a Open Source Terminal Server based in something like VNC and OpenVPN

Opening many sessions in windows is really bad idea ... for kernel stuff and another
csrss, smss problems ... terminal server blue screen, black screen, printers, etc ... so i
have an idea for a workaround ...


Is open a session using createwinstation api ... in that session, create multiples
desktops, using createdesktop api, in each desktop will be secure shell replacement,
ejecuted using x user credentials (runas) ... the printing is gonna be universal virtual
printers that receive the buffer from the win32, and send the emf or pdf to the client
...


Using Virtual Channels is a pain in the ass ... because they all travel using only one tcp
socket ... (really bad idea) so, problems with video, audio, performance, etc ...i think
we can use openvpn to connect to only one port (443 to ssl vpn) and after the vpn is
connected, we can open many socket (each service) between the client and the server
desktop ... so we can send printing, sound, video, etc ...


I have many things already developed ... createwinstation, createdesktop, impersonate
users, universal printer, openvpn implementation .. etc ... but i need help in other
areas, like the video grabber in the desktop (maybe a modified vnc) i can make a
printscreen of each desktop, and send the jpg ... and is working, but is a really bad idea
...


This product can merge with ReactOS .. and be the ReactOS terminal server ...

Thanks, 

Gonzalo.
