Hello,
Thanks for posting in our newsgroup and also for Luka's great input.
On what ports VNC uses, please read the following information from VPN
website:
Q52 Which TCP/IP ports does VNC use?
A VNC server listens on two ports. The exact port numbers depend on the VNC
display number, because a single machine may run multiple servers. The most
important one is 59xx, where xx is the display number. The VNC protocol
itself runs over this port. So for most PC servers, the port will be 5900,
because they use display 0 by default.
In addition, VNC servers normally have a small and very restricted web
server built in, which allows you to connect a browser to them and use the
Java viewer. This runs on port 58xx. Note that this is the HTTP port used
for downloading pages and applets, but once the applet is running it uses
59xx for VNC just like any other viewer.
The servers can be changed to listen on other ports if, for any reason,
these are not suitable for you. See the server's documentation for more
details. Most of the viewers, if given a display number larger than 99,
will interpret it as a direct port number and will not add 5900. See also
the next question.
If you are running a viewer in 'listening' mode, where it accepts
connections initiated by the server, it will listen for incoming VNC on
port 5500.

<You should check if you are using VNC server - this one listens on port
5900
<or you "call" their VNC Viewer in listening mode that listens on port
<5500...
<
<So this ports are the one to check. For example:
<
<Your machine inside network | ISA | External programmers
<VNC server (listens on 5900)
<
<If you want this setup you need to pass port 5900 from internet to
specific
<IP in your lan.
<
<2 example:
<External programmers | ISA | Your machine inside network - you initiate by
<left clicking on vnc server and add new client
<VNC viewer listening (5500) | | VNC server (listens on port 5900 but it
does
<not matter)
<
<In this setup you need to allow "calls" from your internal PCs to internet
<on port 5500.

<Hope it helps,
