You don't neet to change VNC port if your router can forward any port to
any other port (a lot of routers do). Just install vnc as usual and
forward ports from the router to different ip addresses.
5900 - IP1:5900
5901 - IP2:5900
5902 - IP3:5900
etc.

This is what I did. On each computer that I want to connect to from
outside the network, I changed the port that VNC is listening on. To do
that you right click on the VNC icon in the system bar ( I think it is under
option or properties) and change listening port to whatever you want as long
as it doesn't interfere other programs using the same port. I have used
5901 for computer A, 5902 for computer B, and 5903 for computer C. Then I
port forward those specific port to specific IP assigned to the computer I
want to connect to. For example if Computer A has an IP address of
192.168.0.2, I would port forward port 5901 to 192.168.0.2 and so on.
Next you will need the external IP address issued to your router from your
ISP. You can find that in the Wan status page of you router or an easier
way is to go to www.whatismyip.com and the number displayed should be you
external IP. If is shows 192.168.xxx.xxx your NAT is off and you have
bigger problems. Finally, from the VNC viewer type in the EXTERNAL IP
address and the port number you chose, ex 71.555.21.5:5901. If you do not a
firewall on the computer it will connect to it.
One other thing, most routers will not let you connect to your EXTERNAL IP
address from within the network, you will need to use your internal IP
addresses.
I hope this helped. Any other ?'s post them

Can some one please explained how exactly to set up my VNC. I have a DSL
router connected to computer A. Then I have computers B, C, and D connected
to computer A through a network hub. I can connected to any of the
computers
on my network from any other computer on the network ive got that figured
out but what i dont have figured out is how to connect to the computers in
the network from another computer on the outside. I port fowarded my router
so i can connect to computer A from outside the network but how can i
connect to computer B, C, or D directly from the outside?
