One could give more explicit advise if one know what kind of
"machines" those were in the house.

Basically, you want to have each system have its VNC running on a
different port, by specifying a different display number (e.g., :0,
:1, :2, etc.) which corresponds to ports 5900, 5901, 5902, etc.

In your (also un-specified) router, you direct that port 5900 should
be passed through to whatever machine is running display :0, etc.

Rather than expose multiple machines like that, what I do is open up
the ssh port to a single Linux server through the router. Then, I
tunnel the VNC ports through the ssh tunnel, letting me hit whatever
systems I want, while keeping them more isolated from the Big Bad
Internet.
