    You should try firestarter its got a very easy to use gui.
    http://firestarter.sourceforge.net/
    And to add port 5900 or 5901:
    Start firestarter
    Click the rules tab
    Click Open Ports right click and select New Rule and add the port you
    want and if you want another just add another new rule. Very simple and
    easy to install rpm.

    Hopefully once it hits 1.0 fedora will add this by default.
