I assume that you are trying to access your 2 XP PCs via Internet.
Consider, for
instance, the PC1 has the IP 10.0.0.1 (VNC display 0) and the PC2 has the IP
10.0.0.2
(VNC display 0). On the router, you'll can setup up the following "port
forwarding":
* extrenal router IP, port 5900 -> 10.0.0.1, port 5900
* external router IP, port 5901 -> 10.0.0.2, port 5900
In this case, to access into the PC1 you'll have to start a VNC session
to "external
router IP" and to acccess into the PC2 you'll have to start a VNC session to
"external router
IP:1". With this configuration the VNC comunications aren't secure, are
unencrypted.
You can use the same logic using an "SSH tunnelling" connection to
secure
the VNC sessions.
An other way is to start a VNC session into the PC1 and then starting
from this PC
an other VNC session to the PC2. Is simple but not so good for the performance.
The last method is (theorically) using the software "EchoVNC", but
unfortunately I don't know how it works.

Hi Claudio,
I´m sorry I don´t understand what you´re trying to say. Could you kindly
explain step by
step? I configured the VNC Server to port 5900 for computer 1 and 5901 for
computer 2. I
can connect to computer 1 fine, but when I try connecting to computer 2, it
connects to
computer 1. Both computers are connected behind the same NAT router.
Regards
Dean

You can try using a port forwarding software (like is possible via an SSH
encrypted
connection), using the software "EchoVNC" or using a double VNC connection (1st
VNC
connection with the Server, and then a 2nd VNC connection from the server
towards the
workstation). Using the port forwarding method the logic is:
·display "0", port "5900" -> server VNC;
·display "1", port 5901 -> server port forwarded -> workstation.
