I have a question on this though.  I've got a linux system setup at home
that has vncserver running on it (ubuntu remote desktop) and I can access it
from my windows desktop on my home network, but when I try and connect from
elsewhere (I have port 5900 forwarded to it on my router) it won't connect.
Any thoughts?
