Another option would be to use a service such as Glance (www.glance.net) which behaves exactly as you describe. Trouble is, it costs $49.95 per month. But, on the plus side, it is absolutely trivial to setup and get going, and it doesn't matter if anyone is behind a strict firewall. So, if this is something you will be doing often, it may be worth the $$.

Dear All,

I am new to this list.

I am interested in sharing my desktop, via the Internet, with a group of students with disabilities. I simply want the students to be able to see my desktop and mouse movements. I do not want them to have control over anything on my PC.

I downloaded and installed the Free Edition of VNC.

I also printed out and read the documentation. I have a small, four-PC, local area network at home. I am able to get VNC running successfully on and between all four PCs on the same network. However, I do not seem to be able to provide my students the ability to connect to my desktop from the Internet. I believe I have everything setup correctly. I've tried having my students us both a VNC Viewer and a browser. I simply don't know enough about VNC to resolve this problem.

Maybe I am using VNC for something for which it was not intended.

Might someone out there be willing to provide me a little guidance? I promise not to take up a lot of anyone's time.

Thanks for your consideration!

Sincerely,

Steve :-)
