I am using Ubuntu 18.04 LTS. I performed an apt get tigervnc-standalone-server adn tigervnc-common. I am using an xstartup from another host that is running the same setup. When I attempt to connect to the box with the tigervnc client, I get a connection refused 61 message. If go directly on the box and attempt to vncviewer 10.207.0.201:5901 I also get a connection refused message, BUT if I do a vncviewer 127.0.0.1:5901, I can connect. Here is some back ground information.

richmaes@portal01:~$ nmap localhost



Starting Nmap 7.60 ( https://nmap.org ) at 2019-02-07 17:33 PST

Nmap scan report for localhost (127.0.0.1)

Host is up (0.000040s latency).

PORT     STATE SERVICE

631/tcp  open  ipp

5901/tcp open  vnc-1



Nmap done: 1 IP address (1 host up) scanned in 0.03 seconds

AND then interestingly enough (my eyes pop out of my head) because 5901 is there if I use the home address but not if I use its static address.

richmaes@portal01:~$ nmap 10.207.0.102

And I confirm that I am really know what my local IP is.

vncserver is listening on port 5901 according to nmap relative to home address only. I have checked that there are not rules in iptables or ufw. What is happening here?

richmaes@portal01:~$ sudo iptables --list

Chain INPUT (policy ACCEPT)

target     prot opt source               destination         



Chain FORWARD (policy ACCEPT)

target     prot opt source               destination         



Chain OUTPUT (policy ACCEPT)

target     prot opt source               destination

And the Firewall

richmaes@portal01:~$ sudo ufw status verbose

Status: inactive

Douugh!,
/etc/vnf.conf needed a

$localhost = "no";
