Solution to this problem:

sudo apt-get install xtightvncviewer

That package is a "plug-in" to the Terminal Server Client which adds VNC support.

Again, I suggested it before, please add xtightvncviewer to the list of suggested / recommended packages in the Terminal Server Client (TSClient) package so everyone at least has a CLUE how to get the VNC protocol support enabled.

Yes I realize that Remote Desktop Viewer is the "standard" for viewing remote VNC... but I happen to prefer TSClient for the task. This would reduce the time to figure out what was the magic package to add to enable VNC support.
