I don't know what Debian is packaging, but this describes the vncviewer
distributed by RealVNC (at least with 3.3.7) and TightVNC.

If you give it the server name in a terminal window:

$ vncviewer host:1

It then prompts you for the password in that terminal window.  Starting
the viewer without a server name (assuming a DISPLAY variable is set)
prompts you with a graphical window for the server name.
