I can NOT speak for VNC in particular, but in GENERAL,
anytime a client is talking to a server and you see
'connection refused', it means that the client [viewer in
case of VNC] is trying to contact the server on a PORT
number different that the SERVER is listening on.
(Therefore, the OS itself, knowing that there is NOT any
server [of any kind] running on the requested incoming PORT
number, send back a 'connection refused'.)
In the particulars of VNC, the DEFAULT port that both the
client and server expect to communicate on is port number
5900. So, my guess is that your VNC server and your VNC
client are NOT agreeing on the port-number to use. In
otherwords someone or something is causing a port-number
mis-match.
Hope this helps...someone will correct me if I'm in error...

Subject: Real VNC/DynDns - connection refused 10061
Well, I've now gotten to the point the connection no longer times out, it
get a "connection refused 10061" error now. This is the same connection that
worked for about a month, then started giving me time-outs. I'm using a
broad-band connection, coming out of the cable modem, into a LinkSys router,
the internal network is class C 192.168.0.xxx netmask 255.255.255.0 -
internally, I can make a connection, no problem. Externally, for a while it
quit working entirely (time-outs), then suddenly now it's refusing the
connection.
Nothing visible has changed - the VNC properly sees the "local" IP and the
DynDns updater properly identifies the external (real) IP of the cable
modem.
Any suggestions as to how to troubleshoot? It's all pretty much set for
defaults, it doesn't seem to be the VNC - as I said it works WITHIN the
network - I'm scratching my head on this one. It SHOULD be working (well, it
WAS working - then just suddenly quit - the IP hasn't changed, either
internally or externally).
