how do u access a computer from any web browser

Did you install the VNC server on the computer that you wanted to connect to?

You should have something similar to this screen shot, notice the IP address on the bottom right, you can get the IP address of the VNC server from there. Then just double click on the VNC tray icon and you'll be prompted with the setup box.

Make sure you enter a password that is at least 8 character or longer, and take note of the default port for http which is 5800.

Now on the client side you just open up your favorite web browser and enter the IP address follow by a colon then the port 5800. In my example I put 192.168.2.9:5800 and you should see this similar page.

Just enter your password that you created and you'll have access through java and can remotely control the VNC server.

That's how easy it is.

Port forward..

You need to port forward port 5900 to the IP address of your computer in the LAN.

So if your computer IP was something like 192.168.1.100, then on your router you port forward port 5900 to IP address 192.168.1.100.

Your friend then needs to use your external IP address which you can find here

He needs to use that IP address not the Internal one. The internal IP address is for only in the network.

So your friend from across the Internet use your external IP like for example 66.66.66.66:5900 which the router will redirect port 5900 to computer with the IP address 192.168.1.100 if you did port forwarding correctly.

Any software firewalls on your computer with the VNC server needs to be disable or configured to allow the VNC application to connect.
