I'm afraid there isn't. The first two addresses above are bound to the IP
address of a specific network interface (in this case I assume one available
to the Internet?). The second two will accept incoming connections from any
network interface, including local loopback.
Are you sure there is no firewalling between the machines & have you tried
telnetting to ports 5900 and 5800 on the target machine?
