well since we don't know what you did and did not do I dunno.
But common problems: not starting the vncserver, using the wrong port, firewall.
Go Leafs Go.
I have found that i got "X" instead of "your.hostname: (virtuous)"
Does it make a different?Code:New 'X' desktop is ******.kimsufi.com:3 Starting applications specified in /home/virtuous/.vnc/xstartup Log file is /home/virtuous/.vnc/*****.kimsufi.com:3.log

It looks like vncserver is running correctly. Where you sure to include the ":3" at the end of your host name in the vnc viewer?
You should also remove your host name from your previous post as it may pose a security risk. But since you did post it, I went ahead and took the liberty of scanning your ports and found that port 5900 (the vncserver default port) is indeed blocked.
So your real problem is a firewall issue. Use the command
to flush your iptables firewall, which will hopefully allow vnc connection. Just remember to set up a firewall again after things start running smoothly.Code:iptables -F
I have try so many ways and it cant be done. Anyone out there can help me setup the server. pm me. thanks
