Question regarding port numbers.

[Steve Jacobs (IDEAL Group, Inc.)]

Several questions.

Background info:

We have a small LAN and use a Linksys router.  We are interested in 
installing VNC Personal Edition for Windows Version 4.1.1 on four of our 
PCs.

Questions:

1. Given that the router assigns its own IP addresses to each PC in our 
network (192.168.1.101, 102, 103, etc.) how do we assign port numbers to 
each PC so that each of the 4 PCs in the network can be access 
concurrently... if this is possible?

2. Can we assign ports other than 5900 to the other PC's?

3. Can the VNC server recognize and establish communications through other 
port numbers?  If so, what port numbers should we assign to each PC.

One last question.  Realistically, excluding the impact of slow connect 
speeds, how many people are permitted to connect to one server to see what 
an instructor is doing on the desktop of that server.

Sincerely,

Steve
