Hi Romel, Couple of options come immediately to my mind.
a) Setup a CGI (/asp / whatever) web page and get the IP address information from the environment - then the user just needs to go to a specific page. b) Setup dynamic DNS - http://www.dyndns.org/ - and get a local client c) IF you have a single VNC viewing location - Run the listener on your viewing location and put a shortcut on the end users desktop to call winvnc -connect <Your IP address / DNS alias> We do a combination of b & c, I have the viewer setup for dynamic DNS and the clients have a shortcut in their start menu. Then when they need a hand, it is just "Go and click on the support icon" and up pops the screen on my machine.
