No, it are very normal fat-clients behind NAT, and only I (the sysadmin)
need connect to them, to help the people when there are problems. I am
looking for an easy and flexible way to connect.

( Hmmm, IPv6 is an option here. But I have many other customers where
the ISP does not offer IPv6. )

Bye,
Paul.
