So is there something wrong with what they set me up with?

seems as though you need to install iptables package

[root@Server1 /]# uname -a Linux Server1 2.6.24-23-xen #1 SMP Mon Jan 26 03:09:12 UTC 2009 x86_64 x86_64 x86_64 GNU/Linux

But if iptables is not installed, how is port 5900 being blocked?

---- maybe the xen host is blocking them. Maybe upstream router is blocking.

why not just use freenx and run everything through ssh port which clearly isn't blocked? It's faster and better anyway.
