What sort of problems are you having? Is the target behind a router? If so, 
you'll need to make sure the router has the appropriate ports forwarded. 
Also, you'll need to make sure you're using the "real" address, and not 
the "private" IP address for the LAN. If you're using a 192.168.x.y or 
10.x.y.z type address, and you're trying to connect to that over the 
internet, it's not going to work. 

Please write back with some details about the two PCs that you're trying to 
connect via VNC.
