Port Forwarding

Realvnc runs on port 5900.  He won't be able to download files from your
computer to his, he will be able to alter documents on your machine.

I'm trying to get my son to access my home computer from school.  
I'm using a Linksys router and while he can ping the cable modem 
the port forwarding doesn't seem to be working.

I've look at the instructions and the only thing I can see that I 
may not be doing right is the Ext. Port Range.  What range should 
I be putting in?  I am not seting up a Web Server (port 80) or an 
FTP server (port 21) I just want to give him access to my 
computer so he can get files from my machine to his (not 
necessarly FTP).  We are using RealVNC to connect between the two 
machines.


Thanks,
