Step 3 is also rather confusing...

# Modify your xinetd configuration - You will need to create files in 
/etc/xinetd.d/ for each of the lines you've added to /etc/services. Here 
are some examples that you can pretty much copy & paste:

    * /etc/xinetd.d/vnc

# description: VNC
service vnc
{
        socket_type     = stream
        wait            = no
        user            = nobody
        server          = /usr/bin/Xvnc
        server_args     = -inetd -query localhost -geometry 1024x768 -
depth 16
        disable         = no
}

    * /etc/xinetd.d/vnc-large

# description: large VNC
service vnc-large
{
        socket_type     = stream
        wait            = no
        user            = nobody
        server          = /usr/bin/Xvnc
        server_args     = -inetd -query localhost -geometry 1152x864 -
depth 16
        disable         = no
}

    * /etc/xinetd.d/vnc-huge

# description: VNC Huge
service vnc-huge
{
        socket_type     = stream
        wait            = no
        user            = nobody
        server          = /usr/bin/Xvnc
        server_args     = -inetd -query localhost -geometry 1400x1050 -
depth 16
        disable         = no
}

It says to create files in /xinetd.d/, yet there was no such directory.  
Also, what is supposed to go into those files?  I thought at first that 
it meant the above statements; one for each file, but those look like 
they belong in xinetd.conf instead.  At any rate, I went ahead and put 
those lines into xinetd.conf, and also made an /etc/xinetd.d/ directory 
and made three files in it (vnc, vnc-large, and vnc-huge), each one with 
the appropriate lines as stated above.  But still, it isn't working.

I also noticed the line server          = /usr/bin/Xvnc

Then I had a look in /usr/bin and discovered there is no Xvnc.  Is it 
named something else on a Debian system or what?
