I just recently moved out to another state for business and I'm having trouble trying to remotely access my computer at home. I use VNC and PcAnywhere and tried to plug in the public IP address and I'm not having any luck. Is there a VPN or any type of tools that I need to use to access my computer? My laptop is Windows XP Pro and my home computer is Windows XP Pro.
 
TightVNC over an SSH2 connection works for me. I don't have my web server up yet so I have port 80 forwarded to port 22 internally that way if where-ever I'm at blocks everything but web traffic then I can still get to my network.

Secure, fast, and it works!

PS: Sorry don't have the links ATM. Maybe someone else can hook you up.
 
I'm here in my linksys router page. Should I forward the port ranges from 22 to 80 or something? Also what would my internal ip address be? (i.e 192.168.1.__)

Is there anything else besides SSH2 that I can use?
