Network routing mystery; ssh works, vncviewer doesnt

I'm having a problem with VNC that I've been unable to figure out. I've 
got a number of remote machines connecting to my LAN over OpenVPN. I can 
ping them and ssh to them successfully, but when I try to connect with 
vncviewer, I get an error

  main:        unable to connect to host: No route to host (113)

The routes look fine, and if they really were broken then ssh wouldn't 
be working. What else could cause vnc to fail with that error?
