Hi, A newbie question:

I have downloaded the iPhone app Mocha lite and I think I have configed. the interface correctly.. 81.168....., 5900, password as in SysPrefs., Mac OSX server on.

and on my 10.4.11 mac I have tried to find "remote management" or "windows sharing" and neither exist in sys. prefs. I CAN find apple remote desktop, and have switched on and applied "guests may request" and filled in the password. It does say others can access using 192.168..... but where do I apply that address?

Does this sound correct? I can't seem to get anything to connect. Error in Mocha: VNC Negotiation: "Host has closed the session"

edit: ah..what it doesn't say in all the helpful help pages is you have to open ports in your router and I assume in sys prefs too. After much opening of doors and playing about...it works... need to prove it does from a distance and on other macs. So far can't have option for either of 2 macs on same router as ports are set for the router.
