You don't need all three. You need either port or display number:
server::5905 or server:5
Well - in my case I actually DO need all three. I had to start my
vncserver with an explicitly overridden value for its rfb port (using the
-rfbport option). So the rfb port is not 5900+display number. That's
why I needed to set a similar explicit value on the viewer.
