Remmina VNC doesn't connect to remote machine

I need to connect to a workstation from a personal machine but don't have any luck with it. The workstation is also Ubuntu 14.04.

My personal machine: Remmina 0.9.99.1, Ubuntu 14.04.

The window I get stuck with is saying it's trying to connect.

Help, please?

EDIT: Trying to access a remote machine via remote desktop. I can ssh to it with no problem.

The rest of the config.

remote-desktop vnc remote remmina

Check out this post and double check the configuration of the remote system allows vnc connections:

setup Remmina for remote desktop connection

In order to be able to use Remmina, you need first to activate certain
options of the "Desktop Sharing" screen (Bash -> Desktop Sharing) on
both computers:

On the Desktop Sharing Preferences:

• Activate the option "Allow other users to view your desktop"


• Activate
  the option "Allow other users to control your desktop"

Only activate the following if you are not trying to configure unattended access:

For security's sake, also:

• Activate the option "You must confirm each access to this machine"


• Activate the option "Require the user to enter this password" and
  provide a password

Once the configuration is done, you can simply open
Remmina, create a new connection and specify the connection to the
other computer using VNC (virtual network computing) protocol and
using the password you used in the "Desktop Sharing" screen.

Hint: You can ignore the field "user".

Try it first without SSH and, if it works, then start playing with tunneling.
