- Install VNC server on the Vista. make sure it runs. Telnet localhost 5900, make sure you get a link. Remember the local IP, if you are behind router, it'll probably 192.168.something, maybe 10.something. Type "ipconfig" in Command Prompt to get local IP.
- Make sure the server uses VNC password auth
- Link the phone, start the viewer. Phone should have an 192.168.somethign IP (You can check from terminal or via installable applet)
- Connect to to the said Vista _Local_ IP and provide password.

If your phone and your router are not on the same side of the router, then you need port forwarding. You need to tell the router to fix your PC IP (e.g., always use 192.168.1.2), then tell it to forward ports 5900 and 5800 from the internet to 192.168.1.2. You need to read the manual, and admin access to the router.
Then the phone links to your internet (exterior) IP, not the 192.168, but the one you get from whatsmyip.org. Note that if your ISP uses NAT to get you Internet, you're cooked.
The guide has nothing to do with VNC and all to do with networking. I suggest you use a PC to debug VNC, then apply settings on phone. Always debug one issue at a time.
