Hi all. I recently discovered a program called VNCthing that allows you to control a computer remotely. I want to use it to control my old Compaq 4540 machine and also to give access to it to the other computers in the house. How is it set up? I know there's the option in Internet Connect.app to do that... but I've never used it.



If anyone can help I would be very grateful.

    Using the above url, dowload the OS versions you want.

    Double click to install and its done.



    I think the default port is 5900 and if you use a firewall that uses NAT (network address translation) you need to hardcode a code of ports (5900, 5901) for it to work.
