main: unable to connect to host: Connection refused (111)
Also when I restart vncserver on the server machine I can't find that
program running anywhere on the server machine. Can anyone explain all
this?
Have you tried "vncviewer saturn:1". By default vncserver creates a
separate display, starting at 1 and incrementing for each instance of
vncserver so you must connect to display 1.
Also, the process is "Xvnc", not "vncserver". vncserver simply
launches
Xvnc and passes it some startup stuff (like a window manager, typically
twm).
