I'm working on project to develop an software using the TCP/IP protocol. The basic function of the software is to access the client activity running on client machine from server machine, for example information about current running applications.
Also, I want to access desktop screen and mouse from client machine to server machine using TCP/IP protocol. What are the basic steps that I can follow to access the desktop and could handle client mouse from server machine using TCP/IP.
It sounds like you want to build a VNC or RDP -like program. There have been an explosion of these services/programs in the time since you asked the question, though I don't know how many might be open source. I would start by investigating an Open Source VNC client and then see about adding an encrypted tunnel to keep the connection secure.
UltraVNC and TightVNC are popular Open Source VNC clients.

So this is a classic question that I’ve seen many times before...
I’m trying to connect to my home network when not at home using a raspberry pi.
I’m well aware that the way to go with this is to use a vpn server such as OpenVPN.
However, in order to connect to the vpn I would need to forward a port on my router... which I can’t do.
I’ve found remote.it which allows remote connection to a computer (pi) without port forwarding.
What I would like to know is how would I set about using the 2 together, I.e. connecting to remote.it which in turn connects me to my vpn server?
I'm sorry to be finding this question just now, but in case it's still useful to you or to anyone else, here's what you need to do:
Install remote.it
Set-up a remote.it connection to use the protocol (TCP/UDP) and port required by the VPN application
Make a remote.it connection/adding the service to your network (remoteit - Desktop application UI terminology)
Use this connection info (URL/port or localhost:port) with the VPN client
Send an e-mail to support#remote.it if you need help
I would recommend ZeroTier(https://www.zerotier.com/). It haves its own linux client , and you can connect to as many networks as you would like.
You can also configure IP address from the website.
There is also an Android an IOS app that is really simple to connect.
Excuse me. I speak poor English.
I am trying to create a network proxy programming with sock5 protocol. But I have no way to learn it, I can't figure out how a proxy programming works especially the followings:
What is the difference and association between socks5 and the Shadowsocks ?
Can I set a the network proxy configure in macOs instead of using swift or oc ?
such as enabling this check button(socks5 proxy) and filling the specific configure using a language instead of swift or oc:
configure
Once I set the option on macOs in the Question 2,what kind of data will the programming get if it listening the network?
e.g. will the macOs automatically forward the all new TCP connections to 127.0.0.1:1086 and automatically make the connections confirm to the socks5 request standard?
If so, why the final processing programming (transmit the datas to the real remote proxy-server) can make a successful connection? Instead of a forever loop(a.programming create a socket to remote proxy-server -> b. macOs automatically forward it to 127.0.0.1:1086 and make the connection confirm to the socks5 request standard -> a.)
Is it called as a proxy-client? or local proxy-server? what is the job of it. Why do I set a proxy address as a local one instead of a direct remote server?
Why when I setting a fake socks5 option in macOs network proxy options, a UDP programming can still work successfully?
If you can UNDERSTAND CHINESE:
Chinese language
The follow answers are based on my own experience and opinion.
1、socks5 is an Internet protocol that exchanges network packets between a client and server through a proxy server. Sockes
while Shadowsocks is a software use this protocol.
2 、Yes,you can. Install a Shaowsocks don't need any
Programming language, actually it like installing a EXE file on Windows or pkg on MacOS, it's just a software.
3、Socks5 is an Internet protocol like a language between two computer.
The software's message run on you computer will be "translated" by Shadowsocks.
Those translated message will be sent to the remote service (also run a Shadowsocks) then the service can send message to those "blocked" Webs' services.
4、The remote service can be called an proxy service.The local don't do anything except be "translated" by Shadowsocks. Look this picture.
5、The QQ don't use the port 1080, Shadowsocks need a fixed port to "translate" message.
I am currently running a server with Windows 2000 and running client computers off the same switch/network which are running Windows CE. I was wondering if there was a way for me to remote access into my Windows CE clients from my Windows 2000 server? Please let me know your thoughts, I greatly appreciate any constructive input.

Edit
It doesn't necessarily need to be remote access. If there is a way for me to detect the client, maybe a DHCP change, and then allowing me to run script from the server into the client computer, that would work too! Thank you in advance once again.
Window CE does not have RDP host for other systems to connect but you can use application like CERDisp which connect to your Windows CE / Windows Mobile terminal over active sync and display its screens in a window. You can also use the mouse and keyboard on the desktop to remote control the device the same as if you were using the popup PDA keyboard and the stylus.
We have used it long time back. For some information you can look at http://nicolasbesson.blogspot.in/2007/12/enable-remote-display-application.html
You can download this application from http://www.naurtech.com/wiki/wiki.php?n=Main.ToolsCERDisp
There are additional application like Remote Display that allows to operate the target device's Win CE desktop from a Windows PC. It requires a USB ActiveSync or Ethernet connection. For information you can review at http://developer.toradex.com/knowledge-base/remote-display
How can smartly/remotely control a Raspberry-PI system through android apps. I have found an android app named "Raspberry Control" (source). I have followed all the steps as given in the above URL.
I have installed the android app in my phone (samsung galaxy note, recent release in 2014) followed tried to make a connection of android app with my RPI system (I have followed the steps mentioned in this Youtube video). But as shown in video, when the app started from phone, it needs a SSH connection (showed at 0.25 in the video). Unfortunately, I have faced an error like "check installation on RPi".
Thanks in advance for your precious time. Do I need to install any software on raspberry pi or am I missing any steps?
Secure Shell (SSH) is a network protocol that allows data to be
exchanged over a secure channel between two computers. Encryption
provides confidentiality and integrity of data. SSH uses public-key
cryptography to authenticate the remote computer and allow the remote
computer to authenticate the user, if necessary. SSH is typically used
to log into a remote machine and execute commands, but it also
supports tunneling, forwarding arbitrary TCP ports and X11
connections; file transfer can be accomplished using the associated
SFTP or SCP protocols. An SSH server, by default, listens on the
standard TCP port 22. An SSH client program is typically used for
establishing connections to an sshd daemon accepting remote
connections. Both are commonly present on most modern operating
systems, including Mac OS X, GNU/Linux, Solaris and OpenVMS.
Proprietary, freeware and open source versions of various levels of
complexity and completeness exist.

You found a complete guide/dossier in this link. The install instruction can change depending on the system.
You can control rpi trought ssh simply from windows, linux, android, iOs using a ssh telnet/client. Your app simply after press a button send to rpi the correct ssh comand.
If you have debian(or raspbian) this guide is for you:https://wiki.debian.org/en/SSH.
So, you must enable the ssh service on your rpi. Username and password are user/pass of your rpi account.
can someone explain me how this app works? I mean, is not about how to use it, is about how they transmit information from the computer to the mobile device, I just need general terms.
They run a VNC server on the computer and set up port forwarding using UPnP.
They're using a remote desktop protocol (VNC) to transmit the image on the screen over the internet to the client device. Individual actions (like mouse clicks) performed on the client device (e.g. an iPad) are sent over the internet back to the computer, where the RDP server emulates the action.
In order to bypass issues like NAT, they either use UPnP (automatic port forwarding) or have an intermediate server somewhere that both the client device and computer connect to.
