The error presented about setting the screensaver is irrelevant. Rather, there is no meaningful error message. I guess it's stuck trying to connect, which indicates problems with the firewall, but I'm not entirely sure.

Yeah I was tired
(and confused as I was supporting two people with similar issues).
You need to CONFIRM that you can actually connect to your PC's 5900 port from
something and that :0 or :1 is the correct display. Do you have a laptop as well as a PC? run a vncviewer one of them and a sever on the one you wish to connect to. Then you can be
certain that it works in an environment you know.
This is a "configuration error" as opposed to "application fail".
I'm much more refreshed now after my mighty 3 hours sleep... sigh...
