It's the X11 security. The -ac option to `Xvnc` (and hence to vncserver)
does about the same control as `xhost +` does. If you add the -ac option to
your call to Xvnc (or vncserver) it is the same removal of X11 securit as
`xhost  +`.

If you use the vncserver script, you can add the option in there to the Xvnc
call.
