   	Actually, that may well be the problem. In B, which is running Xorg,   
   I get the following (among other stuff irrelevant to our purposes):   
      
   # ss -nlt   
   State   Recv-Q   Send-Q     Local Address:Port      Peer Address:Port  Process   
   LISTEN  0        32               0.0.0.0:5900           0.0.0.0:*   
   LISTEN  0        4096             0.0.0.0:6000           0.0.0.0:*   
   LISTEN  0        32                  [::]:5900              [::]:*   
   LISTEN  0        4096                [::]:6000              [::]:*   
      
   whereas in A, which is running TigerVNC, this is what I have:   
      
   State   Recv-Q  Send-Q      Local Address:Port      Peer Address:Port  Process   
   LISTEN  0       5                 0.0.0.0:5901           0.0.0.0:*   
   LISTEN  0       5                    [::]:5901              [::]:*   
      
   	Nothing seems to be listening on port 6000.
