My first tech question here... Situation:
I am sitting behind a firewall here at the office. We have 5 dedicated IP addresses and want to set one dedicated IP for the Mac. Our desire is to run on either "OSXvnc" or "Share My Desktop (vnc)" application - and can't seem to get either to work unless the Mac is on its own IP address. (or so it seems)
When I launch either of the vnc applications they both present me a Port number as a default (i think?).
Main Questions:
1.) How do I find the correct port my Mac listening on for the remote admin function?
2.) Is the port numbers either vnc is giving me, the detected listening port?
Before I can configure a dedicated IP address for the Mac through the firewall - My admin needs to know the Listening Port for the Mac.
If it helps:
Hardware = Dual 1.8 G5 1GIG DDR SDRAM
OS = OS X 10.3.5
Connected: Ethernet
Firewall: Nextland - IPSec enforced - Pro 400
Thanks in advance for any help!
