All I ever do is install vncserver, run vncpasswd on the account(s) I 
will configure in it, add to /etc/sysconfig/vncserver

VNCSERVERS="1:user1 2:user2"

then enable 5901 and 5902 in iptables and it works.  I also tend to 
replace twn with exec gnome-session in the ~/.vnc/xstart file.

Then all you have are network firewall and transport security issues.


Last I looked, vncpasswd only accepted the first 8 characters and 
ignored the rest.
