By the way, here is the file you need to install install in order to open the VNC port with ICS. Just copy/paste the text below into a file called "openvcn.inf" (or something.inf), right-click on the file, and select "install".

The first port is always 0000, each additional port is ; incremented (the second port to open would be listed as 0001, ; the third would be 0002, and so on).

Previously, I had not been able to connect from work to home at all. (home is win98, running ICS) Once I did the registry tweaking to map port 8080, my browser connected, and asked for my password. When I put it in, I then got a java error, no route to host. Any suggestions? Would I need to map 8080 and 8180?
