VNC with ICF activated

[Gizmo :-\)]

Anyone know how to connect to my dads PC when he has XP pro with internet
connection firewall activated using VNC?

Presumably I have to open some ports but where?

I am aware of Xps remote connection but want him to see what I am doing...he
is 77 you know.

TIA

You need to forward TCP port 5900 (default) to pass through the
Firewall (Settings Tab on the ICF screen)
