You need to fix the ping first.  After getting basic IP connectivity then I
would bet VNC will just work.

I use Dialup Networking to connect with the remote modem. When connection
established, I use the IP address, 192.168.0.1:0. Anyway, I tried to ping
that host, but no response. I don't see where I've got something wrong.

You need IP connectivity first.  Then connectivity on ports 5800 & 5900(if
it's a windows host, otherwise 5800 + session number or 5900 + session
number).

Are you using Dialup Networking to connect with the modem?  Can you ping
that server?  Are you using the server name or IP address?(you might need to
use it's IP address, ie '192.168.0.2:0', in VNCviewer)  If you can ping that
host, then you have to look for a firewall or something like it restricting
those port numbers.

Subject: Connection to a remote server under Windows 98


VNC works fine by me to connect to any server on the lan (all machines under
Windows 98). But when I try to connect to a remote server through my modem,
I get the following message : failed to connect to server.
Has anyone an idea to help me solve this problem ?
Thanks in advance.
