At the moment you type the password and click OK, the java-viewer tries to connect to the vncserver on an other port than 5821. Most likely, this is 5921, details can be seen in the html source of the page you have in the browser. To get things going, also open port 5921 (or what you have found). Test it all with the binary viewer (`vncviewer server:21`) or with telnet (`telnet server 5921`). Once you have this going, the java viewer should work too. The source of what you see in your browser, resembles the contents of index.vnc, the differences are the updated 'variables'. You can edit the file and fix the port number for the viewer, but that will not change the server so that is of no use. Since you mention SSH, I think security is an issue. Then avoid the java-viewer: why have two ports open if one can do? Why give tools to the public?
