The previous problem regarding port redirection has been solved and I'm 
now running VNC over an SSH tunnel.

(Wow, huh?)

For whatever reason, efforts to use a non-standard VNC port in 
conjunction with the tunnel failed, and I was advised to revert to port 
5900... which I did... and all worked as hoped.

Though I did finally check "Only accept connections from the local 
machine.", this was only a precaution after changing the port number in 
RealVNC config back to 5900.

I have since closed the 5900 firewall port, and am running VNC on the 
tunneled connection only.

In time, I will try to post a detailed 'how to' for my specific 
circumstances, but it may be a while in coming.

Thanks again to all here who helped.

Peter B.
