Hi list Im not getting any further forward with remote desktop or this realVNC. Both just refuse connection from the host when I try to connect with the client. I can ping my machine's external IP address but I cant seem to get it to connect at all "Connection Refused".
I have a voyager 205 modem connected via Ethernet cable to my D-Link DI-624 wireless router. On the other side of that I have a small 3 workstation network which Ive setup to share files between myself and my fathers pc using the centre one as a kind of server (not build with server os just windows xp pro) This is the one Im trying to remote onto while outside the network (ie around my girlfriends). Ive tried to set the d-link and the voyager 205 to have a DMZ for this central computers internal IP but still cant see it on the outside. Ive allowed port the ports through and still nothing. I did find something interesting, when I turned off Zone Alarm (free edition) the request took longer as if it got further but still no luck. If I wanted to talk to a computer on the outside and I write it into my NAT table on the voyager 205 I thought that that pc would be allowed to communicate. That didnt work either. Internally everything is fine I can use Windows Remote Desktop Connection as well as RealVNC no problem although the speed is pathetic on RealVNC compared to WinRDC. These are all windows XP pc's and my girlfriend has Vista (Which is really bad by the way, cant move the mouse without it asking if the mouse is ok to move!) Any suggestions or help on this. Im not sure whats up but I cant seem to find a good website that will scan my ports and check whats going on from the outside.
