The page you mention is not correct. VNC, in the stand alone version, runs
on port 5900. If you connect to it on port 5800 with a browser, it sends
the browser the Java client, and then you can connect. But you are
connecting directly to the port the VNC server expects a VNC client to be
connecting on. If you want to run inetd, AND use the Java client, you will
have to set up your own web page that serves up the Java client.

It means the browser is getting the first of the VNC hand shake, which
includes the RFB protocol version number, which is 3.x

Hope that does help.
