The solution is [1] - meaning I forgot to edit /etc/X11/xdm/Xaccess. Allthough now it works beautifully when I start Xvnc manually with Xvnc :42 -once -query localhost -geometry 1024x768 -depth 24 ...it doesn't work when I wan't it to be started via xinetd[2]: "Connection closed" (immediately). The syslog shows this: Jul 9 13:58:35 [xinetd] xinetd Version 20030122 started with libwrap loadavg options compiled in.
