Re: How to access different computer inside a home network?
hi. you need access to vnc server propertis in each computer and change the port number. ej. computer ip 192.168.1.2 5900 and 5800 for http java server (this port number is the default for each instalation you made) computer ip 192.168.1.3 5901 and 5801. you need this in evevry computer you have. now if you have a dynamic ip trought your dhcp server in your router; you only need is to change the port number in every vnc server propertis. then in your router you need to configure to fordware that port number. ej. port 5900 fordware to ip 192.168.0.1 port 5900. port 5901 fordware to ip 192.168.0.2 port 5901. and this to each computer you have. this depend of your router you have some router have the option to only fordware ports other have the option to open virtual servers, in this case is olmost the same; you need to give the port in internet side and give the ip and port in yoyr lan ide. i hope this can help you to resolve your problem. - Original Message - From: "Nestor A.

RE: Using VNC from home.
Stanley, The connection from home goes through the Internet but comes in on the same TCP port but the IP address (I'm guessing) that you use is only accessible locally (probably 192.168..). What you need to do is forward the VNC port (5900) in your router at work so that the VNC traffic is forwarded to the right system. Using IP addresses to define where to forward to leads into a whole discussion of how they are generated. If you use a DHCP server the IP addresses are assigned dynamically and CAN vary over time so you need to think about that. The other thing you need to think about is security. VNC data is not encrypted so anyone can read your data as it passes over the Internet. You should seriously think about using some sort of tunneling protocol (I use VPN/PPTP and the way my system is set up it has the extra advantage that it uses system names instead of IP addresses to refer to the destination systems so I use a DHCP server with impunity) -Original Message- From: [EMAIL PROTECTED] [mailto:[EMAIL PROTECTED] Behalf Of [EMAIL PROTECTED] Sent: Wednesday, October 27, 2004 11:03 AM To: [EMAIL PROTECTED] Subject: Re: Using VNC from home.

RE: Using VNC from home.
You're probably using a "non-routeable" address on the LAN at work. What you need to do is 1)make sure you don't have a firewall between your machine at work and the internet. If you do, you'll need to make a way for VNC to reach your machine at work through the firewall (security hole.) 2) Find out what your "external" or "real" IP address is at work by going to somewhere like http://www.whatismyip.com . I think you'll find that the address it gives is significantly different than the one you see on your local PC at work. Once you've answered those questions come back and ask again with the answers to the above questions included. -Original Message- From: [EMAIL PROTECTED] [mailto:[EMAIL PROTECTED] Sent: Wednesday, October 27, 2004 2:03 PM To: [EMAIL PROTECTED] Subject: Re: Using VNC from home.

RE: connecting to a VNC server behind a firewall (on my home LAN)
I think Conor can probably skip step 3 (locking IP addresses to particular MAC addresses - systems - with router as DHCP server) since he is using static IP addresses. Conor, just make sure you have DHCP disabled on the router if you are truly using static IP addresses for everything - or make sure DHCP is assigning IP addresses which do not conflit with the IP addresses you have assigned statically.

Re: Problem using VNC with VMWare
Rich Schaaf wrote: I'm having trouble using VNC to remotely control a VMWare session. When the screen changes on the VMWare guest machine, those screen repaints are not reflected across the VNC connection. Instead, I need to move the mouse around the area of the screen occupied by the VMWare display in order to force the VNC viewer to refresh the display. Another suboptimal workaround is that I can tell the VNC Viewer to "Refresh screen" in order to force the VNC viewer to repaint the entire screen of the VMWare guest machine. I'm using default settings for VNC and the versions of VNC / VMWare that I am running are as follows: VNC Viewer machine: Windows XP SP1 VNC Viewer 4.0 VNC Server machine (also the VMWare host operating system): Windows XP SP1 VNC Server 3.3.6 VMWare Workstation 4.5.2 VMWare Guest operating system Windows XP SP1 Has anyone else encountered this problem and know how to fix it? My workaround would be to install vnc in the vmware-guest too and use that. If this is a professional situation (you are willing to spend some money) then vmware-gsx is an option, it provides the vmware-console: kind of like a vnc-session to the guest but with access to all virtual harware too.
