Preferably forwarding port 5900 on the Linksys to one machine's port 5900 and port 5901 on Linksys to port 5900 on the other PC. Please see http://www.portforward.com for instructions on how to perform port forwarding. Also please see the FAQ at http://faq.gotomyvnc.com for more information on VNC and other tricks and tips.
