I too am trying to run VNC through a firewall. Everything was fine connecting out to my server at my home computer and vice versa until we implemented a new firewall. I understand that there's some Java viewer out there that would let me communicate through the firewall by setting up some kind of virtual proxy between the server and the viewer thus allowing me to talk over a common open Port. Any help would be greatly appreciated -----Original Message----- From: Pollett, Marc [mailto:[EMAIL PROTECTED]] Sent: Tuesday, August 07, 2001 1:25 PM To: '[EMAIL PROTECTED]' Subject: I'm having trouble connecting to a server outside my firewall. Both server and workstation are WinNT4 SP5. Server is running latest WinVNC. When I try to connect using java client, I get java.io.eofexception error (after about 5 minutes). Server can be accessed no problem from outside the firewall. After checking firewall logs, no apparent problems with either web or communication ports (58xx and 59xx), though workstation seems to be trying to use port 137 as well. When addressing server, I used ip instead of server name, so I'm not sure why it's trying to use NetBIOS port (137). BTW, vncviewer doesn't work either. cheers marc --------------------------------------------------------------------- To unsubscribe, send a message with the line: unsubscribe vnc-list to [EMAIL PROTECTED] See also: http://www.uk.research.att.com/vnc/intouch.html --------------------------------------------------------------------- --------------------------------------------------------------------- To unsubscribe, send a message with the line: unsubscribe vnc-list to [EMAIL PROTECTED] See also: http://www.uk.research.att.com/vnc/intouch.html ---------------------------------------------------------------------
