vnc router issue

[Doyal McVicker]

While I am not an expert. I would suggest that you try using a "Listening 
VNC Viewer".
You would need to open port 5500 on your intranet router to point to your 
machine.
Your clients would start the process by establishing a connection from their 
VNC server.
I made the assumption that you are on a static internet address.
Your clients would only have  to open one set of ports and each client would 
share the port.

Good luck.
