Connection timed out (10060)

I read a number of messages on this forum about this particular message,
but none of them seem to address my particular problem.

Both the client and server are running Windows XP. From this client, I can
connect to a number of machines in my office, but one in particular is not
working. I know the IP address is correct because I can use Remote Desktop
to connect to it.

Other than setting a password, I left all the defaults in place, which is
how it appears to be on the other machines (I am not the one who installed
it on the other machines).

The Windows Firewall is turned off, and no other firewall is installed on
the machine.

If I try to telnet to the machine using the VNC default port (I saw
something about this in one of the messages, but not what response I
should receive), I get the message "Could not open connection to the host,
on port 5900: Connect failed" This must have something to do with the
problem, as I am able to telnet to another one of the machines on which
VNC is working.

Any suggestions would be appreciated.
