Did you specify the proper ports? Is the vncserver running?
You may either set up tightvnc as a userland app to start it ad lib (useful if you putty in and start the vnc only when needed).
Another way to run vncserver is from inside inetd, that's what I do.
I added to /etc/services:
Code:
vnc640 5950/tcp # VNC Server 640x480
vnc800 5951/tcp # VNC Server 800x600
vnc1024-8 5952/tcp # VNC Server 1024x768 8 bit
vnc1024 5953/tcp # VNC Server 1024x768 16 bit
and to inetd.conf:
Code:
vnc640 stream tcp nowait nobody /usr/bin/Xvnc Xvnc -inetd -query localhost -once -geometry 640x480 -depth 16
vnc800 stream tcp nowait nobody /usr/bin/Xvnc Xvnc -inetd -query localhost -once -geometry 800x600 -depth 16
vnc1024-8 stream tcp nowait nobody /usr/bin/Xvnc Xvnc -inetd -query localhost -once -geometry 1024x768 -depth 8
vnc1024 stream tcp nowait nobody /usr/bin/Xvnc Xvnc -inetd -query localhost -once -geometry 1024x768 -depth 16
Remember to update hosts.allow to keep unwanted users out
