Norman, VNC by default uses port 5900. If you use the Java applet, it takes the port 100 lower to *serve* you the applet.
Thus, you have everything correctly configured for the Java applet serving; you now need to forward port 5900, since both the Java viewer and the full VNC client do their talking over that port. ----- Original Message ----- From: "Norman Heyen" <[EMAIL PROTECTED]> To: <[EMAIL PROTECTED]> Sent: Monday, 2002-07-15 20:39 Subject: New to VNC and need some help > I'm trying to run VNC on my home PC from my work PC.
