On both the systems this comes back with:

[rsupport at syslog sysconfig]# netstat -aevpn|grep -i vnc
netstat: no support for `AF INET (sctp)' on this system.
netstat: no support for `AF INET (sctp)' on this system.
netstat: no support for `AF IPX' on this system.
netstat: no support for `AF AX25' on this system.
netstat: no support for `AF X25' on this system.
netstat: no support for `AF NETROM' on this system.
[rsupport at syslog sysconfig]#

A "netstat -a|grep 5900" on the system that works comes back saying
something is on that port, the other one does not?
