Xen users - Oct 2011 - XCP: problem connecting to VNC for first VM installation

Hello,

I''ve launched my first guest installation on XCP and I would like to
know
how to see the installation process through VNC.

On the XCP:
# netstat -lnatp |grep vnc
tcp        0      0 127.0.0.1:5900              0.0.0.0:*
     LISTEN      7867/vncterm
tcp        0      0 127.0.0.1:5901              0.0.0.0:*
     LISTEN      8928/vncterm

So, there is something listening for incoming vnc connections but I
can''t connect.
I am trying to setup a virtual machine remotely, but if I do:
vncviewer XCP_IP_ADDRESS

I get:
unable connect to socket: No route to host (113)

but it is impossible that there is no route to host because I am
accessing XCP through ssh
right now!

What can I do? Of course the VM is running and I think the setup
process has initiated.

ssh root@xcpserver -L 10000:127.0.0.1:5901
then connect with vnc to 127.0.0.1:10000

Thank you very much.
It worked!

Anyway, I had this problem in past and I solved with:
vncviewer -via root@xcpserver localhost:1
but now it doesn''t work anymore!
It says: unable to create socket: Address family not supported by protocol

What''s wrong? And what are the differences with your command?

Thanks!
