Sorry to have bothered you, but I found my own answer!

1.  Go to "Network and Dialup Connections"
2.  Double-click on the network card that is connected to the Internet
3.  Hit the Properties button
4.  Hit the Sharing tab
5.  Hit the Settings button
6.  Hit the Services tab
7.  Hit the Add button
8.  Fill in:
        Name of Service: "VNC"
        Service Port Number: 5900
        Name or Address of server...: 192.168.0.1
9.  Hit the OK button and close all the dialogs.

That's it!  I think you may need to add another Service at port 5800 if you
use the Java client, but I didn't try that.

Maybe this should be added to the FAQ?

Subject: VNC on Windows2000 with two IP addresses


Hi.  I just downloaded this magical package, and had it up and running on my
local network in a matter of minutes (amazing!).

My problem is that I'd like to access it from the Internet, but I cannot
connect to the server from the outside.

My server is a Windows 2000 box acting as a firewall/proxy.  It has two
NIC's and two IP addresses.  One is directly on the Internet, the other is
on my LAN (192.168.0.1).  When I use the local IP address it works fine, but
when I use the "public" address, it doesn't work.  My friend from the
outside also tried and cannot connect.

When I move the mouse over the VNC icon in the toolbar, it reports both IP
addresses (the public address first).  I tried both the server and the app
versions.

Any suggestions?  Thanks in advance for your help.
