Guys, The port information in Angelo's mail is incorrect.
VNC normally operates over a port in the range 5900-5999 - under Windows and similarly-behaved platforms, this will be port 5900. The equivalent port in the range 5800-5899 (in this case port 5800) is used purely to serve the Java VNC Viewer - it's not used for the VNC protocol, so if you don't want to use the Java Viewer, you don't need to redirect it.
