About RealVNC

I use the realvnc free editions 4.12 in two machine once is runng VNC server other running VNC viewer!

the quesion is the VNC server PC is behind a router and VNC viewer PC is behind a swtich! and I did a port forwarding in VNC server.

But when I type the eg:202.168.134.254:5850 in the VNC viewer, it diaply a message read:Connection reset by peer (10054) Do you wish to reconnect to 202.168.134:5850?

I try to use Windows Remote Desktop Connection with no issue..

anyone know the answer!

urgent!

I think the port which you are using to connect is not correct, The port used for VNC is 5900 not 5850. You have to open the port no. 5900 in order to connect through VNC.

Also go through the URL for more details.

but I change the port in VNC server to 5850, and forward the port to 5850 through router already!
still can't use 5850?

r_naren22atyahoo

go to VNC server
Properties
authentication
untick
"prompt local user to accept connections"

in VNC viewer
Go to Options->Inputs in the viewer and select "Rate-Limit mouse move events".

I would first try and test with a workstation (if possible) inside the router to see if your problem is on the router or the server. If you can connect internally then port forwarding is not working correctly.

restart the computer with the VNC server.

Please take care that you need to forward both the ports 5800 and 5900 on the router not only 5800. And since you changed the default port from 5800 to 5850 then you should forward the ports 5850 and 5900.
