VNC at MAC OSX

I got a new Compaq laptop for my incoming MS.MBA life, and I didn't want to leave my Powerbook on my desktop alone. Therefore, I setup the OSXVnc on my Mac-Tiger, and UltraVnc on my Compaq laptop using the remote control. (Actually, I had tried RealVNC and UltraVNC -- finally I choosed UltraVNC.)


Something funny was that I couldn't connect my OSXVnc when I was outside of my apartment-local-network -- I successfully did the connection in local network via my Compaq Laptop.

The final answer was not because anything worng in my OSXVNC or UltraVNC setting -- it was because Comcast CABLE Service BLOCK the VNC-service-port. The reason I gave up RealVNC was Ultra VNC was a little bit faster and easy to setup service-port.


Finally, after 12 hours from starting, everything was working correctly.


This might be my first MIS class before my MS.MBA program.
