Tight VNC for remote desktop view

1

I have downloaded TightVNC Remote Desktop View form following link

http://www.tightvnc.com/download.php

Which is running ok on local LAN but it is not able to connect to remote PC in other network. I want to modify this code so that it can connect to remote PC in other network. I am new to socket programming; I have studied about NAT Traversal, UDP and TCP Hole Punching. Can some one guide me in achieving the above task? Thanks in advance.

Regards, Ravi Shankar

You simply need to configure port forwarding on the router in the remote network, no programming required. See the section in the TightVNC FAQ, How would I connect from the Internet to a machine in the internal network which is behind a router?

I'm talking about the remote PC in the other network. Is it behind a router? – John T – 2010-01-05T19:07:58.867

Hi John T, in our network all PC are connected to a DLINK ethernet switch, which is connected to a modem. I have also tried all the options in link which you have provided. I have added a virtual service with the said port 5800 but still I am not able to connect from remote pc in other network. – Ravi Shankar – 2010-01-06T10:28:11.877

Hi John T, Both the network are configured in the same manner. – Ravi Shankar – 2010-01-06T13:42:24.450

Check the firewall on the remote PC. – John T – 2010-01-06T20:21:40.953
