I've been connecting to the workstations by running:

Any ideas?

The address is already in use, probably from another ssh session using
the same local and/or remote port.

On each end you can try this to identify the other ssh session:
     sudo netstat -nap | grep :5900

The last field contains the process name and number.

Thanks. You were right - sorry about my previous message. I've got someSID packages installed for KVM that hijacked the VNC ports.
