Hello everyone,
 
This problem concerns connecting to a computer with a router and a cable modem. 
 The best I can tell you is that the machine runs XP Pro, I am not sure if the 
firewall is enabled, and I am trying to connect to the "vnc server v. 4.0".  I 
keep getting an error message that says "unable to connect to server-request 
timed out".   I only know a tiny bit about networking, but I managed to ping 
the ip address of the computer and again got "request timed out".  The machine 
was turned off (I talked to the owner)  and he turned it back on and i again 
pinged the machine with the same result.  My question is once I have the 
firewall disabled, if necessary, what steps do I take to get 
around/into/through the firewall or the router or whatever I need to do?
 
Any help would be appreciated,
 
 Joe
