Hi,

I know that this question is prohibited in the mailing as stated in the FAQ. Sorry for annoying anyone.  Your help is very much appreciated. I stayed in the 
university campus and try to connect to a VNC server in my lab from my personal computer at my  accommodation. It seems that the VNC viewer cannot find the
server. I have tried using host name and host ip address, but it still failed. The strange thing is  that, I can ping the server just fine. I can also use SSH to connect
as well. I am sure the VNC server is running just fine, because I can connect to it from a different  computer running VNC viewer in the same lab. Can anyone
help?

Thank you in advance.
