Glad I could help, I would have given the exact path had I been at a windows xp workstation at the time I wrote that. BTW the Security Center is only in the control panel if you upgraded to XP SP2. Cheers!

I would just make your route to the solution slightly clearer: > Network Neighbourhood > Right Click - Properties > Right Click the LAN or Wireless or Dial Up connection - Properties > Advanced > Windows Firewall Settings > Exceptions > Add Port You may find RealVNC is already listed. You can also get to these settings via Control Panel > Security Centre > Windows Firewall Best regards, Andrew -----Original Message----- From: [EMAIL PROTECTED] [mailto:[EMAIL PROTECTED] On Behalf Of Anthony Francis Sent: 20 September 2004 17:14 To: Sandeep Gupta; [EMAIL PROTECTED] Subject: Re: Can I use VNCviewer on XP system whereas vncserver is running on port 5902 The firewall built in to windows xp is probably blocking the port. Right click on network nieghborhood and then click on properties. Then right click on local area connection then click properties. Then click the advanced tab and in there you enter the firewall properties and add the port to the allowed list. It is a tcp port. The port number can also be changed, you can make the change in the registry. Sandeep Gupta wrote:Hello, Can I use VNCviewer on XP system whereas vncserver is running on port 5902? I did not see any option to send request to other than port 5900 from XP system ( which is default). Some how I was not able to run vncserver on port 5900. Thx.
