Mind you, isn't the whole point of a router to join 2 seperate networks?
The router has two ports, one on each network and as far as the VNC client is 
concerned the packets are sourced to and sent from a device on its own network with 
the router taking care of getting the traffic between the two.
Perhaps my iptables rules are wrong but all I want to do if forward traffic on port 
5900 between the 2 networks and one network doesn't need to be aware of the other for 
this to happen as this is what the router is for.

[hopefully that is a/ understandable and b/ correct]

Oops! You've hit the nail on the head. I can't see any devices on the
155.190.50.0/24 network from 203.110.12.225 - so that's most likely my
problem.

Is there another way that I can do this?
