Hello, may I assume this is the correct response for my problem too?
The router is a D-Link DSL-G604T with an upgraded firmware.

So, should I expect it will run ok from other places?

 

Thanks in advance.

Asunto: Web test is OK but connection is refused.

 

Hi,

I have installed a just downloaded free VNC at home and I have
successfully accessed the server from a second PC in my home LAN (using
192.168.1.2 as target).  All the OSs are Win2K.

 

Then, I have opened the required ports of my ADSL router for the static
address 192.168.1.2.

 

The test at http://www.realvnc.com/cgi-bin/nettest.cgi returns me the
following successful response:

 

> The IP address requesting this web page is 62.14.xxx.yyy 

> Connecting to port 5900 ... succeeded. 

> Waiting for server to send version string... 

> Found a server supporting protocol version 3.8. 

 

However, if I try to access the server from the very same second  PC
using now 62.14.xxx.yyy, I obtain a "unable to connect to host:
Connection refused (10061)".   Pinging 62.14.xxx.yyy is ok.

 

I have done all the tests with no software firewall active.

 

I'd appreciate any advice.

 

Saludos,

Juan Puyol
