Listening to two Servers at once

To run multiple listeners try the following

vncviewer -listen XXXX

so you can do :
vncviewer -listen 5500
vncviewer -listen 5501
vncviewer -listen 5502

and this will open up multiple listeners ready for connections.  You
will need to forward for each port in your firewall or router if you
use one.

Good Luck,
Angelo
