Also testing this http://www.realvnc.com/cgi-bin/nettest.cgi at pc1 and pc2 results this: The IP address requesting this web page is 81.191.183.194 Connecting to port 5900 ... succeeded. Waiting for server to send version string... Found a VNC Enterprise Edition or Personal Edition server. What is my problem? When I connect from pc1 (which is configured as 5900/5900) to pc2 (which is configured in the router as 5900/5901) unable to connect to .... connection refused... By the way, I have checked ZoneAlarm, seems ok. And I know use the same dns on both pc's (xxx.redirectme.net) I'm in the blind here....please :) On 11/10/05, Simen Lxland <[EMAIL PROTECTED]> wrote: > No probs :) > > On 11/10/05, John Aldrich <[EMAIL PROTECTED]> wrote: > > Glad to help... btw, apologies for mis-spelling your first name, Simen. > > > > -----Original Message----- > > From: Simen Lxland [mailto:[EMAIL PROTECTED] > > Sent: Tuesday, October 11, 2005 9:54 AM > > To: John Aldrich > > Cc: [email protected] > > Subject: Re: RealVNC questions about ports and display number > > > > > > OKI, got it! > > > > Thanx a lot :) > > > > On 11/10/05, John Aldrich <[EMAIL PROTECTED]> wrote: > > > Simon: > > > You configure the display number in the viewer.
