SSH also has AllowTcpForwarding (which is what you are looking for), but
unless it has been changed by SuSE it defaults to yes.

This verifies that at least the SSH server is seeing the request.  Hmm.. 
have you verified that your VNC server is running on port :3?  Try doing a
"telnet localhost 5903" on the VNC server.  That will verify that
"localhost" is resolving and the VNC server is running.  IIRC a
"connection refused" at that point means that your destination port is
refusing the connection.
