You can try the trial version to test it out though.

UltraVNC supports Vista and 7, and works fine with the VNC client in the repository.

I just tried setting this up and can't get it to work. I installed Enterprise on my pc (Windows XP 32-bit) and have set the Encryption to "Prefer on".

I've tested a VNC Client on my laptop, both in the local network and via an external network, and it worked ok.

When I try with the N900 I get a "Could not connect to server" error both locally and externally. I'm trying the following IPs;

192.168.0.2:5800 (locally)
xxx.xxx.xxx.xxx:5800 (externall)

I have a DG834G router and have port forwarded 5500, 5800 & 5900 to 192.168.0.2.

Any ideas?

I am using tightVNC on winXP, and it works from within (subnet, 192.168.1.xxx) and outside (external ip address). The only requirement tightVNC requires is to set up a user ID.

I would try to setup working within the network before attempting to do outside the network.
We all know there is 2 firewalls one has to deal with. One is your virus protection, which automatically setup a firewall which can be the same or can be different from your window firewall.

My setup are detailed here, http://talk.maemo.org/showthread.php?t=35043

May I know if there is a way to clear the IP history list (IP that was connected to in the past)?

Port 5800 is usually for the Java applet, so unless you've reset this you should be using 5900 (or just :0) in the VNC client.

Sorry for this completely noob question but how do I set up my router etc to be able to VNC to my home network from a different network. Locally I can VNC to my Vista laptop with my n900 and its awesome and it would be super awesome if I could do the same from completely different network. BTW, I'm using D-Link Dir-300 router. Thank you.

Thanks for pointing that out. But I tried 5900 and am still getting the same error when I attempt from outside. But if I try 5900 on the local network I get an immediate "Connection failed" response. Perhaps I'm still missing something in my router setup.
