Could it be a firewall issue? I'm not sure if turning it on ties in with iptables (it should really).
No... no it shouldnt. Just like starting up something like a p2p client shouldnt automatically punch a hole. No way should any end-user application like vino have rights to punch a hole in the firewall without sysadmin authorization. No way, no how. Even on a single user system...no way. Opening up the firewall should be a delibrate act and not something that is automated behind the scenes. If you want to argue that system-config-securitylevel needs should have a pre-defined entry for vino, that i can get behind.
