Getting xterm working ?

I've installed the vncserver packages supplied by Debian which went good
until I should get a window manager working.
The thing is I get a grey screen. Becourse I don't need a window manager to
pop-up I would be happy enough by getting some xterms which I could start
console progs in.
so I've put these commands in ~/.vnc/xstartup:

#!/bin/sh

xrdb $HOME/.Xresources
xsetroot -solid grey
xterm -geometry 80x24+10+10 -ls -title "$VNCDESKTOP Desktop" &

(which I got from another posting)

but the screen is still very grey and I still got nothing on it.
the vnc logfile tells no errors anymore.

but I found this in ~/.xsession-errors:
_X11TransSocketINETConnect: Can't connect: errno = 113
xrdb: No route to host
xrdb: Can't open display 'xxxxxx:1'
_X11TransSocketINETConnect: Can't connect: errno = 113

I don't know if it maybe could have somthing to do with that I'm using NAT
at home and need to do some port mapping !?

Please help
