Hi,

I have a Powerbook running OSX 10.4.5 and I am trying to use VNC to control my Wife's PC (running XP pro) on the other side of the world. I used a pc and connected to my wife's pc via MSN's remote assitance just to set up the VNC Server. I added port 5900 to forward on my router and also to the firewall and chicken of the VNC on my Powerbook connected ok. But this only worked while I was using the remote assistance of MSN. Is there anything that MSN disables or enables that allows VNC to work????

I don't always have access to a pc so would love to get VNC working!

Thanks in advance for any help.
