Problems with vncserver / vncviewer

Hello,

I started a vncserver in a RedHat Machine with:
     vncserver :11 -geometry 1000x700

The machine responded with 
    xauth: (stdin):1:  bad display name "elcaos.imta.mx:11" in "add" command
    New 'elcaos.imta.mx:11 (checo)' desktop is elcaos.imta.mx:11
    Starting applications specified in /home/checo/.vnc/xstartup

The content of the xstartup file is:

    #!/bin/sh

    # Uncomment the following two lines for normal desktop:
    unset SESSION_MANAGER
    export DESKTOP="GNOME"
    exec /etc/X11/xinit/xinitrc

When I run the vnc client (vncviewer) in my Ubuntu Work Station the only
thing I get is a black window, with an "x" that moves as I move the mouse.
The thing is that in the beginning the pair (vncserver / vncviewer) worked
pretty well but now is just displaying this weird window.
This window is shown in the image below:

Do you have any idea on what's happening?

Thanks 

Sergio.
