* * Please Help Us :>( I have degenerative Spinal Stenosis that is in it's advanced stage. I have a young daughter who is can not do the maintenance involved to keep her computer stable. Since I am confined to my bed most all the time, I searched for a way to take care and keep an eye on my daughters computer from my computer located in a different room on the other side of our home next to my bed. We have a very simple network that is hooked up to our two computers only. There are no additional computers besides our two on this network. Both computers have Windows XP Home Addition installed. I found Tight VNC on ask Jeeves and was happy that there might be a solution to our problem. I have read all the info I can find on this product and set it up according to the instructions. The only problem I have had so far is this one: When I tried to connect to the server,this window comes up asking for a Host. I don't know what the host is! Is it a number or what? At first I thought it wanted our IP address but both our computers are using the same IP address. I did notice something about a port, but where do I find this port and on which computer. Or is it both? Then just what do I do with this Port will it solve my problem? Please someone help me figure this out it is so important to us. Please put it in a dummies language and include all I need to know to get this program running smoothly. Thank you all for your kindness and valuable time, Melly |
