A lot of routers won't allow you to connect to the outside IP from the inside of the LAN. You'll need to find someone outside your network to verify that port-forwarding is configured correctly.

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.
