VNC Connection aborts with no error message

[Ferindo Middleton Jr]

When I run the vncviewer from the command line, it don't get much 
feedback giving the reason why it terminated. This is all it says:

[username at localhost .vnc]$ vncviewer 192.168.1.2:0
VNC viewer for X version 4.0b4 - built Apr 14 2004 12:25:22

 CConn:       connected to host 192.168.1.2 port 5900
 CConnection: Server supports RFB protocol version 3.8
 CConnection: Using RFB protocol version 3.7
 TXImage:     Using default colormap and visual, TrueColor, depth 16.
 CConn:       Using pixel format depth 6 (8bpp) rgb222
 CConn:       Using ZRLE encoding
 main:        End of stream

I'm beggining to think that the problem isn't a vnc-specific 
configuration problem (it must be some other suybsystem running on the 
server that's a conflict for I retraced the steps I originally used to 
set it up... and I already tried stopping iptables and SELinux... The re 
must be a lofile for the actual VNC Server or GDM that can give  details 
as to whyth econnection is quitting so abruptly.... doesn't say anything 
specific (or in detail atleast) about these failing VNC connections 
about it in the daily Logwatch's delivered to root either
