changing default ports - java doesn't work

[Patrick Linley]

That did the trick!  I didn't put 2 and 2 together with the '100'
relationship when it was talking about 5900 and 5800.
Thanks!

Now, one other question... I like the low overhead and portability of
vnc as opposed to {PCsomewhere}, but is there anyway possible to have
the screen blanked on the controlled PC in WinVnc?  I would think there
should be an option in the registry or 'options' to defaultly blank it
as long as you aren't using the option to log in as 'view only - ignore
inputs'.

As Jacob mentioned, you need to use 7801 for the Java applet.

And since you are using 7901 and the port 100 below it, having 5800 and
5900
open on your router won't do anything for you.  You would need to open
7801 and
7901.
