Jeremy, port 5900 (DISPLAY :0) is your X11 console.  This is the session 
you are logged into on the remote machine (the machine to sshed to).
port 5901 is a virtual X11 desktop started by the vncserver service in 
/etc/init.d.  They are 2 different X11 sessions that you can connect to 
via vnc.  They probably have 2 different password files (unless you 
copied one to the other like I did) and a connection to :1 will give you 
  a different desktop than a connection to :0.

You should concentrate on one or the other.  Trying to debug both is 
getting confusing!
