Hey guys.. I've been trying to get VNC Viewer to work on my PPC. The application just closes when I try to reach the server. Can somebody kindly walk me through the process? thanks.

actually I'm trying to connect to my home Wi-Fi network now. I'm putting in the string like 198.68.01:0 (198.68.01 being the internal IP of the pc that I'm trying to connect to). what am I doin wrong.. :(

No it doesn't, if it's assigned by DHCP it MIGHT change over time, but it will still work as long as the address is valid.
The DHCP client will typically re-lease the same address is used previously. you can also set DHCP Reservations so that DHCP will ALWAYS assign the same address to the same client.
Static addresses are not mandatory.

No it doesn't. For either case you can use DHCP. The issue that you might have had was that your devices were picking up different IPs every time, but that does not mean that you have to use static.
I use VNC over wifi with DHCP. My devices would typically get (but not always) the same address each time but to ensure that they do I use DHCP reservations.

To end the issue -
Assigned a static IP means that the IP address is not going to change. So when you connect via IP all the time it's nice to know the the addresses are always the same. Assigned a static IP can be a bit of false economy of course since a simple DNS change requires a visit to all device. With one PC it's not an issue. The larger the network, the more work.
DHCP assigns an address dynamically so there is the chance that your PC might get 192.168.1.1 today and 192.168.1.2 tomorrow. It's not random, there are ways to predict how the addresses are allocated and TYPICALLY a device will ask for the "same again please" when it renews. So you might have 192.168.1.1 today and if your network is stable the chances are that you'll keep that address. Being dynamic of course it's much easier to keep all the other information up to date (DNS etc.).
DHCP with reservations is the best of both worlds.
"easier" is a relative term. I would recommend sticking with DHCP Reservations over static, especially if you need to move your clients between other subnets.
Neither method is "faster" than any other.
For Akheron, you cannot say that he cannot use DHCP. That's not correct. Whether he chooses to use it or not is a decision that he should make, but VNC will work with or without DHCP.
From what was posted, this does not appear to be a DHCP specific issue, rather a port issue.
