This isn't a direct answer to your question, but you would be better off to
tunnel your vnc connection over ssh.  It's no more difficult to set up than
"regular" vnc and it's a lot more secure.

Whether that's true depends on the topography of the network. It's certainly not true here, and encrypting traffic needlessly simply slows things down.
