The only way to use only one port is to use a VNC client, not the
Java-applet.  The Java-applet is served from a web page that is one port,
but the actual applet itself communicates back using the standard VNC ports.
So, by default, to use the Java-applet you need to have port 5800 for the
web server and 5900 for VNC.  In the example you give the Web server would
run on 443 and VNC would run on 543 (unencrypted).  Tunneling multiple ports
through SSL might work (I have no idea one way or the other).
