Doubt regarding VNC

Hari:
	Heya. You ask a fairly common question: your PC is on
a LAN that uses the 192.168.*.* address range, but those IP
addresses are for "internal", intra-LAN only. Somewhere on
your network, there's a router which automatically translates
your internal 192.168.x.y IP address into a "real" IP address
that works on the Internet.

	I've put up a FAQ about routers and VNC and getting
them to all play nicely together here:

	Another contribution to that FAQ'o'Matic describes a
step-by-step process in getting a router setup:

	I hope one or both prove useful!
