Hi Noah,

   Since you were setting up on an EC2 instance, I was imagining that you
would be running pvserver over there and connecting to it with the client
running on your desktop.  But I guess you are running the client gui on the
EC2 machine, and this is why you need vncserver?  Just curious.

   I'm glad you have had some success, though.

Cheers,
Scott
