Hmm... Good point. Ok. Obviously something is NOT configured correctly on
the router if you can't see any listening servers when you are able to
connect from the LAN. Best practice is to hard-code an IP address (either in
the system/NIC properties or via DHCP from your router) and tell your router
to forward the previously mentioned 3 ports to it. Double-check your config
in the router. Also, make sure your ISP is not blocking VNC.

Sorry about the previous post... guess my morning cup of coffee hadn't
kicked in yet. :-)
