Well actually, if the server is running on UNIX/Linux, you probably also need the port number, something like <ip address>:<port number>. If this is the first instance of VNC server that you have started, it will probably have a port number of 1 (it will report this to you when you manually start VNC server). So, it would be something like 192.168.0.125:1, as an example. Then again, if you are running something like vino, then I think just the IP address will be sufficient, as a port of 0 is used, which is assumed to be the default.
