I'm seeing exactly the same problem on FC4. I just put up another post
about it. I had at that time only tried to connect using older versions
of the VNC viewer on various systems (Windows, my Kubuntu laptop). But
I just tried connecting to a vncserver using the same version of
vncviewer (vnc-4.1.1-10.1.fc4) and get the same error message.
Something's broken here.
