Your partner needs to get his/her public IP address, e.g. with

the router to the PC on the inside.

Or you could just look at the email headers to pick up said partners
IP. It will usually be the bottom one in the list of header hops.

But VNC has another option, and that is for the OP to run a listening
viewer, and have the partner connect to said viewer. Its made for
precisely these situations where one end is behind a firewall.

Of course, if both are behind a firewall you have to do the routing
trick.
