Actually, it is connecting to the VNC proxy.  That's what I was trying
to get at.  That message is inside of the novnc HTML5 vnc viewer.  So
the VNC proxy is failing to make a VNC connection to your instance.

Your browser connects to the VNC proxy successfully via the public IP
address.  The proxy should then connect to the VNC server for the
instance.  The address used to connect to the VNC server internally to
nova is from the vncserver_proxyclient_address option, which you have
set to 192.168.9.3 on your compute node.

Check to see if the VNC connection is getting blocked by iptables on
your compute node.
