[QUOTE="Verbal, post: 671342, member: 47380"] I'm trying to set it up so I can remote into my Powerbook at home from Windows XP at work. I've read a few sites that explain how to do this using what is built into Leopard and using the TightVNC client for Windows. I set my firewall to forward port 5900 to my PowerBook. I checked the box for screen sharing and set a password for VNC. Tried it and it didn't work. I then unchecked screen sharing and checked remote management. I made sure all the settings were right in there and I set a VNC password. Tried it and it didn't work. Any ideas? I've gone through everything. [/QUOTE]
