Jeff, Yes there is. With SSH (recommended for over the internet): 1. You assign the SSH port on each machine. By default SSH is on port 22, so you can use 23, 24, 26, etc. Just be careful with port 21 & 25. 2. Then let VNC Server use the default port (display 0, port 5900). 3. Forward each port in # 1 to the internal IP of the PC. (E.G.: port 22 - 192.168.0.10, port 23 - 192.168.0.11) 4. Setup the SSH client for -L 5901:localhost:5900 user@YourRouterIP and the corresponding port in #1. I use PuTTY for this. It's a simple setup with it. 5. Launch the SSH client 6. Launch the VNC client connecting to localhost:1
Without SSH (not recommended over the internet, but fine for intranet): 1. Just use VNC Server and viewer but assign a different display number to each station. Display 1 is port 5901, display 2 is port 5902, etc. 2. Launch the VNC Viewer with desired_remote_ip:Assigned_port (192.168.0.30:5903).
