Hi,
I thank the persons who developped this programme, it is great...
I have a small question, I installed this at home on my wife computer, now on the same home network there is my daughters computer.
It seems that I only can connect to my wife's computer ?? any reason why my the connection to my daughters is not working, I used the router IP address and the the password of my wife's computer ..thats all, do I have to enter the routers IP and then the computers IP ?? how do you do that ??
Thanks for your advice
Osty

You can on have the standard IP port of 5900 routed to one IP address. You need to reconfigure the UltraVNC servers, and the router, so as to use different IP ports for the other PCs.

Example:

Wife's PC -- IP 5900 ---> 192.168.1.100
Daughter's PC -- IP 5901 ---> 192.168.1.101
Your PC -- IP 5902 ---> 192.168.1.102

Surely if the server is set to auto (default), then this is taken care of?

NO! Every server installation is set to use the default port of 5900. If you have multiple servers installed on various PCs on your "home" network, then each server will be using IP port 5900.

Besides, the router would have PORT-FORWARDING rules which would only re-direct to one PC.
