I load the vnc module in /etc/X11/xorg.conf

Add a section like:
Section "Module"
        Load  "vnc"
        Load  "extmod"
EndSection

and also in the "screen" section define where the vncpasswd is:

Section "Screen"
        Identifier "Screen0"
        Device     "Videocard0"
        DefaultDepth     24
        Option      "passwordFile" "/path/to/vnc/passwd"
        SubSection "Display"
                Viewport   0 0
                Depth     24
        EndSubSection
EndSection

I use an ssh tunnel and foward a local port from the client to
port 5901 on the vnc server and then connect the vncserver to the
local port in the client - it works fine. I have tested this in f9 
and it works on my machine.
