destination port 5900 Anyone have any ideas? I have used vnc for MS Windows to MS Windows but not from MS Windows to Fedora.

That's the difficulty. On windows, VNC runs at port 5900. On linux, the first VNC session runs at 5901, second at 5902, etc. If you start vncserver manually, it will tell you something like "starting display on :1". This really means starting on 5900+N, or 5901.
