Whilst this is a known problem, that vinagre doesn't support the
undocumented authentication types used by ARD server by default, a
suitable current workaround seems to be to enable the "VNC viewers may
control screen with password" option in system preferences. After doing
this auth type 2 becomes available and vinagre can successfully connect
using the given password.

I have asked upstream if they can do anything to better feed this
information back to the user on failed connection.
