Hi,
I have the latest version of realvnc running on my home machine and I am
trying to
connect to it from my machine at work. I'm not permitted to install anything
on
the work machine so I must use the java viewer through ie to connect.
When I connect I can get the little connection details box to pop up but
clicking ok
gives me a 'java.net.UnknownHostException: ...' error. I'm led to believe
that this
is due to the fact I'm behind a proxy (websense) at work. Bearing in mind I
can't
install anything on the work machine is there any way to get around this?



With vncviewer, there is nothing to install, the executable works out of the box. If you just so happen to have it on any medium, you might try to start it and off you go. BE NOTED: I donnot tell it does not leave any traces! it just does not need to be installed.

For the java-access, you need to open 2 ports on your nat-router: the 5800 port for the webserver serving the java code and 5900 for the java-applet to access the vncserver. Most likely you have opened the 5800 port, you do need to open the 5900 port (with the same nat-route) too.
