Solve : How to specify IP address for remote desktop?

Answer»

I need to find my remote desktop IP but I have been unable to do this since all I can find is my router IP and my 192.168 address. How do I specify this so that I can, for example, access it from a computer not on the LAN?You fill out your WAN address in a remote desktop client and if necessary the port number the remote server is listening on (on your network) and your router does the rest.

You might be able to test it by just FILLING out your WAN IP where you normally fill out the LAN IP.By the way, this is what I do to remote connect: http://www.techotopia.com/index.php/Configuring_Ubuntu_Linux_Remote_Access_using_SSH
Let me interject. 
FYI: There are some free PROGRAMS for remote desktop in Linux.

Notice that different methods are used by different programs. The help of a server is NEEDED to establish a connection.
The following is a good start to understand how Remote Software WORKS. Better results are with commercial support.
