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).
