You're probably using a "non-routeable" address on the LAN at work. What you need to do is 1)make sure you don't have a firewall between your machine at work and the internet. If you do, you'll need to make a way for VNC to reach your machine at work through the firewall (security hole.) 2) Find out what your "external" or "real" IP address is at work by going to somewhere like http://www.whatismyip.com . I think you'll find that the address it gives is significantly different than the one you see on your local PC at work.
Once you've answered those questions come back and ask again with the answers to the above questions included. -----Original Message----- From: [EMAIL PROTECTED] [mailto:[EMAIL PROTECTED] Sent: Wednesday, October 27, 2004 2:03 PM To: [EMAIL PROTECTED] Subject: Re: Using VNC from home. I can use VNC on-site with no problems, but when I try to Use it from home for the same location it cannont find the server. I am using it the same way I use it on site by clicking on the veiwer and typing in the IP address. On-site Iam hook up directly to the network but at home it is going through my Cable Internet. What is it that I am doing wrong? Thanks for your help. Stanley L.
