Does SHIFT+Alt+B work?? VNC will sometimes (always??) not send ctrl, alt sequences, unless used in combination with SHIFT.

I'm running a RedHat 7.2 machine with the RPM vnc-server-3.3.3r2-18.4 from Redhat installed. I'm using the standard windows client version 3.3.3 R3 on Windows XP. When I run emacs on the linux machine, the Alt key doesn't work for escape sequences. Alt-b is ignored. Explicitly hitting escape b jumps back a word (just as expected). My bash shells work just fine, and understand the alt key for their emacs like editing, and emacs-nox works just fine. Running emacs on the work station and displaying it on an X server on my laptop also works just fine. I can't for the life of me figure out why this is happening. Obviously, the interminals are smart enough to handle something that emacs isn't, but exactly what? And how can I fix it for emacs?
