I want to use the KDE Desktop sharing application, but have a Linksys

(in the Linksys router setup?).
How then do I authorize a connection through the router to my machine?
Thanks,
You will need to open a port on your router. The details on this depend on the
router. Typically you tell it what port you want to open, and the lan IP of
the computer to which traffic on that port should go.
You can set the port here:
control center->internet&network->destop sharing->network tab
It looks like it uses port 5900 by default, so try opening that first.
