Iphone 3g, VNC, and DYNDNS Question?

May 10th, 2008
Michaelsaurus Rex asked:


Background:
I am using my Iphone 3g to connect to my VNC using an application called VNC Lite. I am running a VNC server using TightVNC. I registered an address for my IP using DYNDNS and I have their updater tool so it keeps my IP and the address the same.

I have my VNC setup to a private port 50000 range and its nice and forwarded. I also have a name for my ip address I registered at DYNDNS.org. NOW when I test it on my local network using a VNC program on my Iphone both the machines IP and the name registered by DYNDNS can connect, no problem. When I go to the normal phone 3g network and try to connect through my DYNDNS name it says “Error Cannot Connnect to Host” but if I switch it back to local its fine. I have used DYNDNS port checker and it says my port is working fine…what else is there I can do? Am I missing something?

I work for a large company that has its own intranet which also connects to the internet. There is a company firewall handled by IT. I know there are applications on the new Iphone that will allow you to link with your home computer and see what’s going on on it or actually open files on it. Would it be possible to do this with a computer at work?
