OPERANDS

       The following operands are supported:

       [server][::port|:display]
              Specifies the VNC server to connect to. The VNC server can be
              either a hostname, or an IP address. If the server is an IPv6
              address, it must be enclosed by square brackets. The address can
              optionally be followed by two colons (::) and the VNC port
              number, or alternatively by one colon (:) and the display where
              Vinagre should run. If a port is not specified, default value of
              5900 will be used.  If the value is lower than 1024, 5900 will
              be added to it. For example, ":0" means "5900" and ":1" means
              ":5901". If only a port is specified, but not the hostname,
              localhost will be assumed.  Possible values for the display are
              between 0 and 1024. If a display number greater than 1024 is
              specified, it will be assumed to be a port.  Note that you can't
              specify the port and the display at the same time.
