router

Since I have my home network behind a WRT54G, the router has an external "real" IP address, and the PCs behind it have 192.168.xxx.xxx addresses.

I would like to be able to control one of them remotely - preferably using UltraVNC, but I am open to suggestions.

Since I can't directly address that PC from the internet, I figured I could address a port on my router and have the traffic forwarded to the PC (and the same in the reverse direction).

Is that feasible? Can anyone tell me how to do it (or point me to an URL that does)?

Thanks
