Hi everyone,
I have been using ultra VNC for quite some time without any problems. Laptop A (my personal laptop) can connect to the server easily without any issues. This means there is no issue with the server.
Laptop B (my office laptop) however cannot connect for some reason. I have done the following steps to hopefully make it work to no avail:
1. Added uVNC to the list of programs allowed by the firewall
2. Opened both incoming/outgoing rules for port 5900
3. Added '::5900' after the IP address of the server to ensure I connect via 5900
Is there anything else that I could do to get this to work in office laptop? Turning off the windows firewall entirely is not an option as it was disabled by our administrator.
Any inputs would be greatly appreciated.

Laptop A can connect to server, laptop B cannot. Help a noob
Re: Laptop A can connect to server, laptop B cannot. Help a
Is Laptop B on the same network as Laptop A? Are there any differences between Laptop A and Laptop B relevant to uVNC functioning?
By default, Windows firewall does not block any outgoing traffic so you should not have to do any tweaking on the firewall for Laptop B.
However, I found this statement confusing:

If the firewall was disabled by the Administrator, wouldn't it already be off? Or do you mean the ability to turn the firewall off was disabled by the Administrator?Turning off the windows firewall entirely is not an option as it was disabled by our administrator
