I can't seem to find where it says this, but I'm pretty sure that the display number must be the first argument to vncserver. I use the following csh script to make sure this happens. I don't no what the "-nolisten local" does, but someone on the mailing list suggested this when I couldn't get vncviewer to connect.
#!/bin/csh -f echo -nolisten local $* \ | sed -e 's+\(.*\)\(:[0-9]*\)\(.*\)+ \2 \1 \3+' \ | xargs vncserver Hope it works for you.
