David and Thomas thanks for your replies.
I am new to networking and the idea of controlling pc's remotely. I can
connect fine between the 2 computers (they are assigned a static ip
internally ex: 192.168.0.x) behind the router using vnc viewer and the
internet broswer. The problem is accessing from out side where the problem
arises. My isp provider (swbell) says they aren't blocking any ports. I
don't have a static ip, so I have to find out what my dynamic ip is then
type into the browser. I have tried ports 80, 21, 5800, and 5900 without
success.

1. If I have configured my router to accept http on port 80, then when
typing the ip address in the browser :-5820 should follow the ip?

2. If I have configured my router to accept port 80, what should the display
for vnc viewer be (80)? Should auto be enabled? Should accept socket
connections be enabled?

3. Do i have to change port #'s in:
HKEY_LOCAL_MACHINE\Software\ORL\WinVNC3\Default ? Should it be 80?

4. Dave I didn't understand:  if you're using ZA - make
sure vnc is setup as a server.  it's not enuf to turn ZA off
(as opposed to not having it initialize on login), the dll
stays resident and still offers protection.

I know these questions may seem basic to many people, but I am new to this
and would appreciate any help.
Thanks

Also can someone recommend a very easy, simple book that I can read to learn
more info.
