To your questons:
I am sure of my own ip address. As I wrote in my email, I let my friend in
other city using VNC Viewer to connect the server in my home and it works.
I guess the firewall of my company will block the connection which goes out.
************************
One of the possible reasons of that error message is that the ip
address is not used. But you said that you got a ping reply, well
......
Sometimes ISP would change customer's IP address. Are you really sure
of
your own IP address?
How are you so sure it's not because of your company's firewall?
You've tried another VNC server (via Internet, of course) and it's
working
for you?
If you do a
telnet <ip_address> 5900
do you get "RFB 003.008" or something similar?
