|Another VNC question

Post by Scrufdog »

Im trying to connect to my home computer with Gentoox while im in a hotel..

MY home computer is running the lastest RealVNC 4.whaever, with the use version 3 protocal box checked, so that my pdaphone can connect to it.

So in GentooX, i open the terminal, type vncviewer, and a little box pops up tath sez Vnc Server with a text box. I enter in the dyndn_ address:port and all it does is sit there.

Any ideas on how to solve this?

I can reach vnc at my house with my boss's computer running theough the same hotel internet.
