This may be a case of the blind leading the blind. I was new to VNC only five
days ago, so I'm no expert. I did, however, manage to get VNC working after
much trial and error and some help from people on this newsgroup.
If the PCs are on a network, I think it will be very easy. Install VNC on
each PC. On the Server PCs, start the Server App. A window will open and the
only thing you need to add is a password. Be sure to note the name of the
PC -- Network Properties>Identification.
On the Viewer PC (that's the PC that will view the other PCs), simply run the
Viewer (not the one that says "Listen Mode"). When you run Viewer, a box will
open asking the name of the PC you want to view. Enter the PC name, followed
by: :0 (That is pcname:0) Then, you will be prompted for the password you
entered on the Server. A viewer window will open and you will see the desktop
of the Server on your Viewer PC screen.
I sure hope this does it. Let me know if it works.
John
