Choose one of those commonly known ports, like 80 or 25 or 110.

Make RealVNC listen on that port. (VNC Server Properties \ Connections tab \ Accept connections on port)

Forward that traffic on your router at home.

Figure out your home router's IP address.

When at work, use RealVNC to connect to your home router's IP address on the port you specified.

Am I correct in understanding that you have a VNC viewer at work, and you're trying to use it to connect to the VNC server running on your home computer? If so, you can do this. Unless your office blocks *outgoing* traffic on port 5900, which is very unlikely, you can use a VNC client on your work computer without further trouble.

If port 5900 is blocked, then your best bet would be to tunnel the traffic through your office's proxy server on an open port. There are programs (such as SocksCap for Windows) that will do this easily.

What is VNC? (Introduction from the VNC website)
RealVNC is the official home of VNC, staffed by the original team who created and developed it whilst at AT&T.
The mission of RealVNC is to act as the focal point for open source VNC. We are continuing to improve VNC
with our own new features and by evaluating features developed by others in the open source community and
incorporating the best of them into the official codebase. New features and bug fixes will be released on a
regular basis.

If they won't open the ports for you then you can't do it. VNC needs a port it can use... I suppose you could make your own version of VNC that uses the https port... provided you never wanted to use https... for instance.

Otherwise, no can do.
