I have a small home network consisting of Windows millenium doing the internet sharing and some other windows 98 machines.  The windows ME machine has two network cards, one for the LAN and one to connect to my cable modem.  I would like to run WinVNC on this computer so that it can be accessed over the internet.  However when someone tries to connect to VNC over the internet it simply doesn't work.  However it does work internally over the LAN.  Does this mean VNC is only listening to one of the network cards and not the one that is connecting it to the internet?  I can not understand why it isn't working.  Has anyone got any ideas?

Thanks in advance,
Jon Smith.
