Try port 23... that's the SSH port. If you're not using it, there's a chance it'll work.

Need a bit of help with realVNC and port changing. Like many people I need to change the default port number from 5900 to get around a firewall. However although I can get VNC fine when testing it from a computer at home, (which doesn't have a firewall so using 5900) it works absolutely fine, whenever i change the port setting to anything else it won't connect and gives me a 10060 connection timed out error. I also get the same error if I try changing the port number from 5900 even between 2 computers on my LAN at home, although it will connect fine on 5900. Any reason for this - do i need to change any other settings? All i have done is change the setting in the server, do i need to change anythiing on the viewer side? Please note, I have done all this testing on systems without a firewall so far, so getting around the firewall isn't currently the problem. I have so far tried changing to ports 20, 21, 8080 and 19 and a few random ones. Thanks for any help Jon _______________________________________________ VNC-List mailing list [EMAIL PROTECTED] To remove yourself from the list visit: http://www.realvnc.com/mailman/listinfo/vnc-list _______________________________________________ VNC-List mailing list [EMAIL PROTECTED] To remove yourself from the list visit: http://www.realvnc.com/mailman/listinfo/vnc-list
