First see if you can ping from the vncviewer machine to the vncserver machine. (if ping is passed trough the firewall) For vnc, the major communciation is for the rfb protocol on port 5900 (add display number as display :4 is on 5904). See if you can telnet from the viewer machine to the server machine on port 5900 `telnet vncservermachine 5900`. This should give a message like "rfb xxx.yyy". > > I thought perhaps I needed to change a firewall setting, but > since they > are now on the network - is that really needed? > Yep, open the used port: 5900 + displaynumber for the rfb communication.
