I think I got what you means. What I have to do is 1. Port forwarding the port for VNC Server in the firewall. 2. To connect to other PC, I need to enter the DSL modem IP Address for that PC. For you information, there are 10 PC behind the firewall and Modem. What I need to do is use the IP Address for the DSL Modem like 219.94.72.177. To access to certain PC behind the Firewall and Modem, I need to add the port behind the IP Address for the DSL Modem like 219.94.72.177:56. Lets say I set the Port 5900 to the Firewall, means the Port for VNCServer for the PC should be 5956 right? So I need to dial up the IP Address 219.94.72.177:56 to access to the computer? I'm doing right? Abi

You have to make sure the port used by vnc is not blocked by either firewall. 2. The firewall is what has the ip address that you are connecting to. The ip address of the computer behind the firewall might not be the same as the address of the firewall. For example, I have a dsl connection. The ip address of my dsl modem is 129.234.21.50. The ip address of my computer that is behind the firewall is, however, 192.168.1.20. In order to make this work I have to have port forwarding set up on my dsl modem so that anything coming into it using the vnc port is redirected to my computer. When I run vnc from outside my network, I connect to the ip address that is owned by my dsl modem, and that port goes through it to connect to my computer. To tell whether this is your problem or not, you'd need to check the ip address on the computer and make sure whether it is the same address you are trying to connect to from the other end.

Lets say branch A, B and C. Each computers already installed with the RealVNC servers. I'm in branch A.The problems is I can't log into the computer in B and C branches. All the branches is equipped with the firewall.
