I concur with Richard. If he can't get the packets, he cant use vnc. -----Original Message----- From: [EMAIL PROTECTED] [mailto:[EMAIL PROTECTED]] On Behalf Of Bill Reedy Sent: Friday, March 22, 2002 10:16 AM To: [EMAIL PROTECTED] Subject: Re: ip address
Richard... Greg's main problem is that he is not permitted to alter the server system in any way, which makes any type of port forwarding impossible. Without access to the server, there is no option....ethically, that is. He has the tools, just not the authority. ...br ----- Original Message ----- From: Richard Clegg To: '[EMAIL PROTECTED]' Sent: Friday, March 22, 2002 6:55 AM Subject: RE: ip address If you go out and buy a study guide for the CompTIA network + qualification, it will give you a good grounding in networking, and it goes from basic too. NAT (Name Address Translation) is the process of converting between the IP addresses used on a private network (such as a home LAN) and Internet IP addresses. This makes it possible to use a large number of addresses within the private network while using a few Internet IP addresses. In your situation this means that instead of using ICS, you could use an IP Proxy which basically routes everything from the internal network to the Internet. It's a very similar role to what ICS is doing now. You would have the proxy software on the server, that isn't your machine, and both machines would then have an internal IP address (for sake of argument, 192.168.1.1 and 192.168.1.2). You would connect your machine (192.168.1.2) to the proxy on 192.161.1.1 (which would be the server). You can then connect to the Internet as before, with no loss of performance. You would then need to redirect port 5900 on the server to the port 5900 of your machine, and then you can connect to the internet IP address, which would be redirected to your machine and you could then access your machine from the internet by VNC.
