Update: We prototyped integrating NoVNC with the Hypersocket VPN. It was relatively simple as it hooked straight into our forwarding mechanism that was already using websockets. Will be releasing an update to support this in the next month or so. We will also integrate our client-less SSH terminal at the same time. RDP is a little more complex so will need further research before we can support this.

RE: Modern Open Source Replacement for SSLExplorer
@scottalanmiller It already supports clientless access to file systems so grabbing files should not present a problem. There are some HTML5 VNC and RDP clients around that could be adapted to provide more browser only based options. We already have web-based terminal (SSH) but have just not integrated it in the VPN yet.

RE: Modern Open Source Replacement for SSLExplorer
The Hypersocket VPN uses packet filtering in the network stack so combines native and Java components but it does not use the Java browser plugin. The fact that it now uses a client reflects the change in architecture but also that most people these days carry some sort of device around with them.

RE: Modern Open Source Replacement for SSLExplorer
@scottalanmiller SSLExplorer was a product of its time. With the pending death of Java in the browser it's unlikely we will see a 'clientless' solution again. The closest you will get now is http://sourceforge.net/projects/hypersocket-vpn and you can't get any closer than a new product built by the same team that brought you the original SSLExplorer!!
