Sounds like you are doing a loopback test.

Are you using one computer from the viewer and other computer for the sever??

Yes,
is this not the proper way?

once you create the server, do you run it on PC1(local) and then do the same for PC2(remote)...same file?????

I am so confused

Did you read the step by step that is listed in this forum as a sticky

You are correct. The viewer is the computer that you use to control the other and you need to start the viewer first on a direct connection. Once it is started you start the server. Provided all the ports are open and your have everything set up properly it will work..;)
