Application | Start Port | End Port | Protocol | IP Address | Enable |

When port forwarding is set up, you can connect to the router’s IP address such way as if it was your target machine’s IP address, but you should specify those port numbers on which port forwarding was activated.

How secure is TightVNC?
Although TightVNC encrypts VNC passwords sent over the net, the rest of the traffic is sent as is, unencrypted (for password encryption, VNC uses a DES-encrypted challenge-response scheme, where the password is limited by 8 characters, and the effective DES key length is 56 bits). So using TightVNC over the Internet can be a security risk. To solve this problem, we have plans to implement built-in encryption in future versions of TightVNC.
In the mean time, if you need real security, we recommend installing an SSH server, and using SSH tunneling for all TightVNC connections from untrusted networks.
How can I hide the tray icon of my TightVNC Server?
Answer for TightVNC versions 1.x:
To disable the tray icon, you should start the «regedit» utility from the command line, go to the HKEY_LOCAL_MACHINE\Software\ORL\WinVNC3\ folder, and create a DWORD parameter with the name «DisableTrayIcon» and the value «1». Then, after restarting TightVNC Server, the icon will not be shown anymore.
But please note that hiding the icon is usually not a good idea. For example, if you want to restrict users from changing the server Properties, it might be better to use the AllowProperties setting. For more information, see the description of «AllowProperties», «AllowShutdown» and «AllowEditClients» options in the VNC documentation.
Answer for TightVNC versions 2.x:
Open TightVNC configuration, choose Server tab, uncheck «Show icon in the notification area», press Ok.
To show the icon again, use one of Control Interface or Offline Configuration shortcuts found under the TightVNC group under Start\All Programs.
Does TightVNC work on Mac OS X?
Currently, we do not offer a version for Mac OS X. It’s very likely that TightVNC will include one in the future, but not in the nearest days. Currently, our team is busy working on the Windows version.
If you need viewer part on Mac OS X, try TightVNC Java Viewer. It’s cross-platform and should work fine in any system where Java environment can be installed, including MacOS X.
Also note that recent versions of Mac OS X include built-in VNC-compatible server which is compatible with TightVNC as well. In other words, you can connect to any modern Mac OS X system with TightVNC Viewer.
How do I uninstall TightVNC?
Normally, TightVNC can be removed just like any other software, from the Control Panel (Add/Remove Programs). But if something goes wrong, or TightVNC was installed manually, you can always remove it manually using step-by-step procedures below.
