Make sure no firewall is running on either machine and test it again. If you can do a reverse connection, it seems that the host machine is blocking the incoming connection. VNC is not likely to be the issue. My experience is it is most always something else. Do you connect properly with NAT disabled or is VNC still not working at that time?
