Vnc native protocol (RFB or remote frame buffer) uses port 5900 by default.
If http connections are enabled for vnc, port 5800 is activated as an http
interface to a Java applet that launches a Java-based vnc viewer.

When we integrated this code into Solaris, to conform with Solaris security
policy, we patched it to only listen on port 5800 if you requested it with
the -http option, where upstream enabled it by default:

I've not checked the OI fork of the code to see if they kept this up or
dropped it.
