Hello,
 
I found this about that - - -
 
>>>> Is your company's firewall restricts or filter access to Internet?  OTOH, is your firewall a stateful one?  I don't know what "stateful" really means, but this word pops up several times to me concerning outgoing connections.
 
What is a "Stateful Firewall"
http://www.cyberguard.com/snapgear/faqomatic/public_html/fom-serve/cache/31.html
 
It seems that my work server ( I called the IT Guys ) blocks all ports and is basicly shut down to almost all traffic, high security, firewall, port blocking and all - so it looks like I wont be able to connect to my PC at home due to this.........
 
Does the viewer decide the port to have a outgoing connection or the server ??
 
If so is there a port I can have the home PC server on instead of 5900 & 5800 ??
 
Port 80 - the internet port I think .....  ????? or any other ??
 
Thanks for all the help so far !!!
 
Opie
