I don't know anything about TeamViewer, but.... Probably by using intermediate "relay" servers. Any machine that has web access at least has outgoing TCP/IP connectivity using the HTTP protocol. If both ends can get to the web, they can connect to the relay server, which will forward (or "relay") data on to the other end. Mark

TeamViewer is tool using which one computer can connectct to any other computer over internet which has TeamViewer installed in it. When we install TeamViewer it genrates a userid and password, which can be used to connect our computer from any other TeamViewer installed computer on the internet. I wonder how it does this?

How does it do what? I already explained how the two ends are able to connect. Mark

Hi Mark, Thank you for your answer. My doubt is when we generate a remote desktop connection request is generated from on system how the relay server knows, to which this connection request has to be sent?

Some kind of connection has to be made at both ends. It can be done peer-to-peer as well, but that can require network settings. The old PCAnywhere did that. I can only guess as I haven't used it, but I know it's not magic - there's some kind of discovery going on... :) Do you have a specific question about it? Internet connections pretty much all work the same way - a listening "server" and an endpoint requesting a connection. Mark
