Remote desktop w/o beeing on the same network?

[DLBlank]

I need a vnc or something that will allow me to connect to another computer thats not on the same net work.

Right now i have ultravnc and titevnc but i dont think any of those would work.

The computer i will be useing to view will be behind a router that i cant acsess, The computer that needes acsessed is behind a router and firewall whitch i can get to. If that matters any.

Any good program/vncs for this? Thanks

IF I understand you correctly, you do have access to the target computer's router.
Assign the target computer a static IP.
forward port 5900 to the IP.

VNC, or ultravnc will now work if configured properly.

Yeah i have accsess to the target computers router.

Then what would i need to enter for the ip or computer name or whatever?

The WAN IP.
Go to the target computer and set up the router. while you are in there, find out the WAN IP.
If it is not obvious, then open a browser and go to http://www.whatismyip.com
That page will have your WAN IP on it.

Ok cool. Thanks

I only need accsess to the target computer for like one night. Should i change it the computer back from a static IP or will it be just as sicure or dose it matter?
