Thanks again Alex, I can shift the ports to the 5900 range, although all
things being equal I cannot see how this will make any difference.  This is
what netstat on the client (192.168.0.3) shows:

After I disable the "Only accept connections from the local machine" and it
connects to the VNC server (192.168.0.2), the client (192.168.0.3) shows:

========================================

Meanwhile, I read this in the Documentation:
" If VNC Server is configured to accept connections only via local loopback
then the Hosts option is ignored. "  What does it mean by "Hosts option"?
The field where you can set which IP addresses to accept/query/reject?

The fact that I can connect fine to the WinXP VNC server with Linux krdc
client with "Only accept connections from the local machine" selected and not
with WinXP VNC viewer leads me to the conclusion that this is a WinXP issue.

What else can I try?
