Lou, I'm glad to hear that the Linux build works on FreeBSD. Does that require any special Linux-compatibility libraries on the system? With respect to the module - which X server does your FreeBSD system use for its console (XFree86 3, XFree86 4, Xorg, etc...)? Regards, Wez @ RealVNC Ltd.

What you can do is forward port 5900 on the router to PC#1, port 5901 to port 5900 on PC#2, etc. That should work fine. I recommend you set up the router so that it hands out the same IP each time, or things could get rather confusing! -Original Message- From: Steve Jacobs (IDEAL Group, In
