Just a beginer

[Rodger Tremlett]

   Hi Angelo, I am running Windows 98 Second Edition on both machines. No
   firewall,  internal  10/100 network, Norton Antivirus 2003, The reason
   for  the  attempt  is I have an ISA slot radio, 500Khz - 1.3Ghz called
   Win Radio and my new machine (This one) does not have ISA slots.
   I  have  the VNC Viewer 4 icon and when I click it I get a log in box.
   I enter the name of the SERVER and hit enter and get a message "unable
   to connect to host. Connection refused (10061)"
   Last  night  it  worked  OK.  This morning I turned it on and tried to
   connect and it failed with the above message.
   Regards Rodger Tremlett (Australia)

You are on the corect path.  are both of the machines actually on the
same netwok?  Is there a router or the internet between the two of
them?

Addtitionallly, what is the Operating system and service pack of the
server (the one you want to control).  Do you run anti-virus/ software
firewall on it?

Hi I have just installed VNC Server on my remote box and VNC Viewer on
my local box.  When I try and connect the local box to take control of
my remote server it tells me it has not connected.
Connection is via a local LAN and I can PING both ways OK.
Have I missed something ?
I assume the idea is I can control the remote server from my local box.
Is this the correct way round ?
Help please for a beginner in this area of computing.
