Here is some ASCII art from your first description: Work--?--Internet--Linksys(64.130.xxx.xxx)--(VNC servers)192.168.1.xxx Is this correct? Not sure where the PacBell Router you mentioned is. If the "?" blocks outgoing connections on unknown ports (or is a proxy server only set up for web browsing, for example) you might have a problem. Can you ping the 64.130.xxx.xxx address? >From your home machine you can try going to http://www.gotomyvnc.com/ and triple check that your VNC servers are visible. It would probably be a good test to use a different PC connected directly to the Internet (for example a friend's dial-up or cable modem, etc.) so that the "?" above can be eliminated from the equation. If you can get to your VNC servers from a different dial-up PC then you will have to talk to the admin of the "?" and get it reconfigured. -- William Hooper Save the whales, collect the whole set ! _______________________________________________ VNC-List mailing list [EMAIL PROTECTED] http://www.realvnc.com/mailman/listinfo/vnc-list
