Sorry, I was only referring to the installation process, not the
installed system. Thanks for pointing out the difference, Mark.

For an installed RHEL system, you just need to allow incoming traffic on
the TCP ports 5801 and 5901 (assuming the VNC server drives display :1)
using /usr/bin/setup.

After this, you may dynamically start a vncserver using the command line
tool "vncserver" or of course persistently configure the startup of a
vncserver as mentioned by Mark. I tried the former and it was accessible
on port 5901 with a VNC client and on port 5801 with a Java-capable web
browser.
