What's the vncserver you're useing? M$Windows or unix based?

That's an indication for the viewer: rfb is spoken here.

I think you've altered port 5900 to 7901. You also need to move port 5800 to
something you need: that's where the java viewer is served (that one also
needs the 5900 port, for you the 7901 port).

If it's for security (and it is since you're trough a firewall) only forward
the port for RFB (5900 by default) and use the vncviewer app: You should not
provide hackers the tools to hack you, and that's what you do if you also
serve the java app at port 5800.

By default it is 100 below the rfb port.
