Hi All,
Thanks a bunch for the help! I now have VNC working properly! I
actually got it working on port 21 & 23 (-5879 and -5877) instead of port
80. Port 80 might work, but I haven't tried it. I'm thinking it won't
b/c wouldn't it have to go through the proxy on port 80? I might try this
tomorrow.
Anyway, here's what I had to do (note, this was also sent to some
friends so ignore the details you already know):
1. Copy and paste "-5879" into the display number for the server. Close,
then restart the server and a weird, long number will display for some
reason. It's actually running on port 21 though (FTP).
2. In the viewer enter the name / IP address plus ":-5879". I'm now able
to connect from work to home despite the firewall / proxy.
You can also use port 23 (telnet) with -5877 (or probably any common port
that isn't blocked).
This *might* work on port 80 too (with -5820), but I haven't tried it
yet. I'm thinking it won't b/c wouldn't it have to go through the proxy
on port 80? I might try this tomorrow.
If you're using a router, make sure it's forwarding port 21, 23, or 80 to
the proper machine.
