After having logged into the linux machine with Putty, and starting the VNCserver, 
the result is as follows:
[EMAIL PROTECTED]:~> telnet localhost 5901
Trying ::1...
telnet: connect to address ::1: Connection refused
Trying 127.0.0.1...
Connected to localhost.
Escape character is '^]'.
RFB 003.003
