Hi again :-) I have a dyndns domain name at home and point all incoming connections to a Linux box that currently doesn't run X (it will take me a while to get that fixed, too, though one could also argue the merit of putting X on an ssh/ftp/http server and calling it "fixed" at all). My laptop is on an internal address within the network. It's great to be able to get to my files from Dad's house or a client's site or wherever. As you saw in my other post, I'm working toward running vnc on the laptop so that I'll even be able to access my running desktop.
I could manually configure the router/NATter, which currently sends everything to the gateway box, to send VNC packets to my laptop, but what about my wife's laptop or anything else in the house? Worse yet if I reboot into Windows temporarily and pick up a different address via DHCP. Is there a proxy that I can run on my gateway box that will let me connect via vncviewer, pick the target address or hostname, and then enter the vnc password for that system as usual? Can it be done some other -- perhaps simpler -- way? TIA & HAND :-D -- David T-G * There is too much animal courage in (play) [EMAIL PROTECTED] * society and not sufficient moral courage.
