2 NICs. Win98SE. One looking "in", 192.168.0.1, one looking "out",
figuratively referred to as 12.34.56.78.
When I telnet 12.34.56.78:5900 from my Win2000 box at work it immediately
closes the window. When I use VNC viewer it sits there for a while and then
pops up a window saying "failed to connect to server".
http://12.34.56.78:5800 sits there for a while and then gives a "cannot find
server"
In the meantime, I can find my Apache server http://12.34.56.78:80, and my
webcam.
BTW, Thanks again for the help.
