fmortel Posted January 19, 2006 Report Share Posted January 19, 2006 Please excuse me if this question seems not too bright. But I'm wondering if the Labview webserver is accessible through the web from anywhere or just on a local network. If I run a vi with the webserver enabled at work, can I access it from home if I have the correct NI software installed? Should I be able to just type into Internet Explorer, for example: http://mycomputer/myproject.html? Any help is appreciated. Thanks! Quote Link to comment
Jim Kring Posted January 19, 2006 Report Share Posted January 19, 2006 You will probably need to ask your IT department how you can access your web server. If you are connecting from a computer on your companies network or over VPN, then yes, you will use an address like http://mycomputer/myproject.html, but if you are accessing your computer from the Internet, then you would need to use an address like http://mycomputer.mycompany.com/myproject.html. Probably your IT department will not go for this option, since there are many security issues. Quote Link to comment
fmortel Posted January 23, 2006 Author Report Share Posted January 23, 2006 Thanks, I do a lot of data acquisition, but I'm not too bright when it comes to networking/web. Thanks again! Quote Link to comment
