Theo -
That did it!! Many thanks.
By the way, after opening the VNC window and leaving, when I go to the
server, the Network Alert icon is no longer there. It is probably due
to my saying Yes when I came up in VNCviewer and it asked if wanted to
delete an applet (I think it was an applet).
Would you know if any damage has been done and how I can restore the
function that checks to see if I need to do an update?

Using Putty, log onto the server. Then type in
vncviewer server:1

open on the server; instead have the vnc data transferred via the SSH
connection.

Start the vncserver and verify that it works locally by doing a
vncviewer server:1 on the same machine (this should give a nice
picture in picture in picture..). This is what already works, right?
From a windows machine setup the a putty session by having a tunnel
forwarding local port 5901 to server:5901. Then start a vncviewer on
Windows (Realvnc/Tightvnc) and go to localhost:1 (so not to server:1)
(You tried to start vncviewer in the putty shell? This will not work)
