Hi Frank,
You need to point your browser at
http://hostname:58xx
where xx is the display number (almost certainly zero if
you are using WinVNC). The browser downloads the Java viewer
from that port using HTTP, then connects to the VNC server
at port 59xx and initiates the VNC session using RFB.
If this really bugs you, or if you would prefer to have to
deal with only one port (eg because of a proxy server or firewall),
then try my hacked version of WinVNC that serves the Java viewer
via port 59xx:
http://home.earthlink.net/~jknapka/WinVNC.exe
Using that server, you can aim your browser at hostname:5900
and get connected.
HTH,
-- Joe
