   Thanks so much for responding. You're right I had the IP # there
which is my normal connection without ssh. So I put localhost:1 in
there and I got the ERROR message of:
Local loop-back connections are disabled.

I did only install the client at home, but in the registry
there is a entry for WinVNC3 which I thought was the server?
Here is what the registry looks like:
ORL
  VNC
     3.3.3
        AllowLoopback
WinVNC3
These are the keys on the left and when you highlite these 4:
VNC, 3.3.3, AllowLoopback, WinVNC3 here is what is on the
right:
Default Reg_SZ (value not set)
AllowLoopback Reb_DWORD 0x00000001

At work there is just one entry for WinVNC3 and
it is just like the above Default and AllowLoopback entries.
I did shutdown the machine at home after I entered these
registry entries.
Any other suggestions?
