I want to vnc into one of my machines from outside the firewall via the web. I set up the router/firewall as follows: Port 5801 is forwarded to port 5800 on the machine I want to connect to (call it MachineA IP: 11.11.11.11. I opened port 5900 for access. I then go outside and open a brower window as follows: .http://11.11.11.11:5801 I get the "VNC Authentication" screen that prompts me to log in with a password. I enter the pwd and click OK and after a while I get the error message "java.net NoRouteToHostException timed out Help!!
