Good luck. Another thing you might try which I mentioned in another post this morning -
You can telnet to port 590x of a VNC server (where x is the display number it uses) , and it should give you back this on at least 3.3.3r9 : "RFB 003.003" If it doesn't, then you aren't seeing the port from outside ----- Original Message ----- From: "NiteFlame" <[EMAIL PROTECTED]> To: <[EMAIL PROTECTED]> Sent: Wednesday/2002 January 09 16:20 Subject: AW: Newbie Problem : > When you have a VNC server running on a system which support : > Java, it will actually run on 2 ports. : > : > The Java/web browser accessible service is running on 5800+ : > your display number, the "WinVNC" service is running on 5900+ the : > display number.
