Hi I had a similar problem over here, setting up the situation as described at http://www.sourcecodecorner.com/articles/vnc/linux.asp.
I was running RedHat 7.2 with Gnome display manager at the local console. The problem was that no XDM was started to serve remote XDMCP sessions (no Xserver login from remote Xterminals). When I changed over to use KDE for destop (and KDM for diplaymanager) then the proper services where started as described. Have a look at the vnc ports (58?? and 59??) and also at the xdmcp port (177 or 117?) and see what is happening there.
