has anyone here tried the vnc viewer (cant even remember where i downloaded it now) i use vnc at work so thought it would be cool to show off how i can vnc to a pc from my p800 but it doesnt seem to work.
if i enter incorrect details it tells me so, but if i use the correct login it seems to wait for a few seconds then just returns to the appications menu and doesnt show me my vnc session..

any thoughts?

i think it stands for virtual network computer, basically you connect via vnc and you can take control of the host computer, so when it works, from your p800 you can control your desk top pc - you can also use it in a view mode only, so you can monitor it

That would be great if you could make it to work.

done what i should have done to start with and searched on here, and found ginomi did the port, i think my issue may be i have not got a loopback connection enabled, trying to figure out how to allow that 😊
