This is true from a pure RFB-protocol standpoint, but from a port-analysis perspective there is a difference. If the viewer connects to a server you have a connection similar to: VIEWER:(random port) <-> SERVER:(5900 + display) On the other hand, if the server connectes to the viewer you have a connection similar to: VIEWER:5500 <-> SERVER:(random port - or is it 5900 + display?) Granted, this is most pertinent during the establishment of the initial connection. Matthew van Eerde Software Engineer Hispanic Business Inc.
