Use WebEx with Linux
WebEx allows you to control a computer's desktop over the network, even using proxies through firewalls. There is a possibility to use a free trial: http://www.webex.com.

Set it up
The first start of WebEx fails but I find a folder .webex in my home folder and it shows which dependencies are not met:
tweedleburg:~/.webex/1224 # ldd *.so | grep "not found"
libgtk-x11-2.0.so.0 => not found
libgdk-x11-2.0.so.0 => not found
libatk-1.0.so.0 => not found
libgdk_pixbuf-2.0.so.0 => not found
[...]
Ok, so I install all missing packages, in this example for SUSE:
yast -i libgtk-2_0-0-32bit libpangox-1_0-0-32bit libXmu-devel-32bit libpng12-0-32bit libXv-devel-32bit
With the exception of jawt that I cannot find:
tweedleburg:~/.webex/1224 # ldd *.so | grep "not found"
libjawt.so => not found
libjawt.so => not found
and it works :)

- find out what your jre directory is. In its lib/amd64 path you will find libnpjp2.so
- find out what your mozilla plugin directory is
- Link libnpjp2.so to from the one directory to the other
- Verify this has worked by surfing to about:plugins
