Comment on Ask HN: How do I get VNC access to a remote machine via a browser?

Comments

Haven't tried these yet but they're HTML5 so no installation. School computer support maybe be a little difficult. One is pay for and the other is free.

Thanks for the ideas! ThinVNC is out, mostly due to cost. I ran across Guacamole last night when I was doing some more digging, but I've never messed with it. I have no idea what browsers they are running on their netbooks and whether they support HTML5. But, now I can start asking the school some more questions...
