I've checked it and my xp firewall has been deactivated. The only strange thing is: If I try it with http://computer-ip:5900, I receive the error message RFB 003.008. Ok - I know it's normal, because it's the wrong port, I'm using. But the thing is, I won't be blocked by a firewall, because I reach the VNC-Server which displays this RFB 003.008!
Therefore the error message by using http://computer-ip:5800 (The page can not be displayed) won't be caused by a blocking firewall, or...? Now I think, maybe I have to change any settings at my VNC-Server? I've already checked the settings and found one item, being interresting: "Serve Java viewer via HTTP on port" - this item is activated and the entered port is 5800. For my understanding, this seems to be correct.. What could only be the reason..??
