just notice that gconf-editor says:

/desktop/gnome/remote_access/
The port which the server will listen to if the 'use_alternative_port' key is set to true. Valid values are in the range from 5000 to 50000.

so this info is not shown on Vinagre-preferences and a different port is used (outside this range)

Are you sure you are not talking about vino and vino-preferences? Vinagre
doesn't have preferences as such.
