Thanks to all who gave tips. The trick worked very well. You are all a
great bunch, keep it up.

<P>This is wrong:

<P><A HREF="http://some.domain:590x">http://some.domain:590x</A>

<P>This is right:

<P><A HREF="http://some.domain:580x">http://some.domain:580x</A>

<P>That is, the preceding URL will show you what this command would show
you:

<P>vncviewer some.domain:x

<P>Because more than one digit is allowed in the display number, it should
<BR>probably have been expressed thusly:

<P><A HREF="http://some.domain:58xx">http://some.domain:58xx</A>

<P>to correspond to this:

<P>vncviewer some.domain:xx

<P>VNC uses port 59xx, but the applet is sent from port 58xx.

<P>Regards,
