Re: VNC and Pocket PC

When trying to connect to your computer from the mobile device are you doing
via your home wifi network, cradle, bluetooth? Port 5900 is the only one
you need to open but when you connect from the client all you need it
your.ip:0 and that should work. Also are you trying to gain access to this
computer from across the internet because vnc has no encryption, it would be
best to access vnc over a vpn tunnel or use the built in terminal services
client, that is if the computer you're connecting to is windows xp pro.
