Connecting to a VNC Server
To connect a VNC client to a VNC server, you need to know the name or the IP address of the computer you'll connect to, and the port or display number of its VNC server. By convention, port numbers start at 5,900 and go up, so a computer that shared three different desktops would normally listen on ports 5,900, 5,901 and 5,902. Display numbers use the 5,900 convention to try to make things easier - port number 5,900 is display number :0, port number 5,901 is display number :1, and so on.
Troubleshooting
If you accidentally display the remote desktop fullscreen, try pressing F8 or F11 to exit. If you connect to the VNC server but can't change anything, it's possible the server or client is in view-only mode. Both server and client need to be configured to let you control the keyboard and mouse. If you connect to a VNC server, can see the initial desktop, can see the mouse moving around, but the rest of the screen doesn't update, then you probably need to disable desktop effects on the shared desktop. A known bug means that desktop effects are currently incompatible with most VNC servers.
