[K12OSN] How to VNC into my FC3 machines from outside?

[Byron Kapali]

Richard,
One thing you might want to check is your firewall settings.  VNC works 
off of port 5900 so you need to add it to the firewall.

Applications-->System Settings-->Security Level
Add 5900:tcp to the "Other ports" box.

when you connect it should give you an x11 session.  Hope this helps.
