If you are having Windows as your Operating system then have a check does your Firewall is not blocking it, it might happen that because of this you are getting the message as Failed to connect to server and if your are having Linux then check your iptables.

Did you enable your port forwarding in your router setting have a check,because of this you would be getting this message.Port forwarding allows you to pass external connections to computers in the internal network.By default port 5900 is being used for the VNC client, and port 5800 for the java.
