I can ping a remote laptop from my office. The laptop is on the VPN and has an IP assigned to it, but I cannot seem to VNC into it. One thing I noticed, is that I can ping the computer and when I do a tracert, it resolves to the same IP but with different hostname. I checked DNS and there are 2 host computers with the same ip address. How do I change the IP address or, how to I resolve this issue to that there are 2 different IP addresses.

Tracerts Resolves into different hostname

Transmission Control Protocol/Internet Protocol (TCP/IP) is the set of networking protocols that define end-to-end connectivity specifying how data should be packeted, addressed, transmitted, routed and received at the destination. This functionality is organized into four abstraction layers which are used to sort all related protocols according to the scope of networking involved.
