I get a similar response with the svncviewer. The error message on the SSH connection is: channel 2: open failed: connect failed: Connection refused The svncviewer error is: /usr/bin/svncviewer.real: read failed This works if I use the Class C address of the VNC server in the SSH port forwarding. It fails if I use the Internet (public) address of the firewall. The firewall forwards port 22 to the VNC server.
