Matt,
I've seen similar messages on my system...same config...
1) It just DOESN'T work from a web browser on whatever port you try...I
have long since given up....
2) The VNC viewer is looking to find out what "virtual" pc to connect to
ie... xxx.xxx.xxx.xxx:1 (this is why I believe that from the web
browser it doesn't work because you also need to specify the port
unlike the windows version where you just need the port.)
3) I don't know the URL of the windows vncviewer client so I have put it
on my website http://www.garel.org/~brian/vncviewer.exe
After you have downloaded it try using it with the following syntax:
vncviewer xxx.xxx.xxx.xxx:1 (or whatever virtual session is active)
The best way to find out what virtual session is active is by looking
at your processes and grep for vnc
4) From another Linux box however you should just be able to type
vncviewer xxx.xxx.xxx.xxx:1 (or whatever)
Hope this covers it...
Later,
