I assume that's right because I'm going for port xxx while trying to VNC into the 5900 port right?

So afaict, since copssh is on the xxx port and my vnc (for now) is on the standard 5900 port, it should be working right?

That should be okay, yes, but ssh is definitely getting to the VNC server (hence the RFB 003.008 in the debug output). That would suggest that either the VNC server is listening on port xxx (in which case you should get an error when starting copssh), or you're port forwarding port xxx on your router to port 5900 on your PC.
