I have my workstation within a firewall, and I want to connect to a VNC server. Which ports do I need to open for that?

VNC display " :0 " Is on port 6000. It goes up from there: :1 == 6001 :2 == 6002 :3 == 6003 and so on...

are you sure it starts at 6000? You might be confusing things with X-Windows?

I believe the VNC ports start at 5900. In fact, check here: http://www.uk.research.att.com/vnc/sshvnc.html

I used to open up 5900 to 5999. Probably more than was needed but it worked ok. +----------------------------------------------------------------------------+ + Bruce S.
