Gee, I hope you did not spend too much. The VNC system software is open source and available to all for free, TightVNC and UltraVNC are both excellent VNC programs and are can be downloaded from the web.



As far as connecting to your home machines.

Here are 2 ways to do it



1 - the easy way

Go on the web and create an account on one of the free remote control web sites. I use Logmein.com Creating an account is free

On each of your home computers, do the following

Go to the account you created and add the computer to the account. Use the free version of the software

Follow the prompts and install the software on each machine.

Now from your office computer, go to the web, open your account, select the computer you want and log in

Because the software you installed on each computer keeps the web site updated, and the authorization come from the machine, you do not have to worry about IP addresses, VPN Tunnels, routers or firewalls

The connection is encrypted and secured, making this the best way to work over the web



2 - If you really want to use VNC

You said have the viewer set up on your office machine and the server set up on the home machines.

Set up remote administration on your router

Now set up port forwarding on your router so that you forward a unique port to each home machine.

Get the Internet IP address that your ISP has assigned to you.

When you need to contact a machine at home, enter the IP address of the router, and the remote administration port (Format is xxx.xxx.xxx.xxx:xxx as in 64.10.120.255:2120) and use remote administration to enable the port forwarding entry that you need

Have your VNC viewer contact the server on the machine using the correct port

Be sure to close all ports when you are done

Because the ISP changes your IP address from time to time, you will need to keep track of the routers IP address. This is why I recommend the web based system



Good Luck
