I dont understand how port forwarding (due to my lack of knowledge in it) can solve it. Even if i forward port 5900 and 5800 in my router does that mean i can access the vnc server simply by typing http://<ip address> instead of http://<ip address>:5800 ? Sorry but im not all that familiar with port forwarding and had several accidents with it in the past. Thanks for you for your help! Cheers
