VNC Client/Server has different display
Hi,
I set-up my VNC Server on a Fedora 13 and I have a client on windows.
I can access the Fedora PC but when I move the mouse and click on folders, I do not see the Fedora Desktop updating (I don't see the things that I am doing in my client on the Fedora PC)
Then, when I do something on the Fedora PC, I do not see it on the client....
No problem with the control, I just want the image on Fedora PC to be the same as the one on my client and vice versa.
Anyone can help me with this?
Thanks!!!

OPERANDS
The following operands are supported:
[server][::port|:display]
Specifies the VNC server to connect to. The VNC server can be either a hostname, or an IP address. If the server is an IPv6 address,
it must be enclosed by square brackets. The address can optionally be followed by two colons (::) and the VNC port number, or alter-
natively by one colon (:) and the display where Vinagre should run. If a port is not specified, default value of 5900 will be used.
If the value is lower than 1024, 5900 will be added to it. For example, ":0" means "5900" and ":1" means ":5901". If only a port is
specified, but not the hostname, localhost will be assumed. Possible values for the display are between 0 and 1024. If a display
number greater than 1024 is specified, it will be assumed to be a port. Note that you can't specify the port and the display at the
same time.
