Don't forget, it's DOUBLE COLON between the IP address and the port. Well it is on RealVNC.

I apologize.. please indulge me. First, I'm using UltraVNC 1.1.0.1. Viewer (Windows XP) I'm trying to connect to one of two machines running UltraVNC server, behind a router. The router has two machines on it, 192.168.1.100 and 192.168.1.141. I setup the router (BEFSR41 linksys) port forwarding with two vnc - VNC1 port 5900-5900 and VNC2 port 5909-5909. This is my office, I'm trying to connect to. When I try to connect with the viewer, I get a 'failed to connect to server' error. I am using the external IP address and the port number when I use the viewer, i.e., 24.212.250.132:5909 What am I doing wrong? I followed the port forwarding instructions from the portforward.com web page, specific to my router type. Is my port assignment of VNC1 and VNC2 not allowed? I'm thinking that it is not; but am hoping that someone here can verify what my connection problem is. thank you for your help...
