Hi Vinny

I am having issues now just STARTING the darn thing..

Any thoughts?

I can switch over to /etc/"directory" where vnc is installed, and I see the
files,
But I go "vncserver"  and it says it cannot find the file....

Subject:        Vncserver management

I have a quick question.  Has anybody successfully used the vncserver
script in /etc/rc.d/init.d (or `server vncserver start`) on RedHat 7.2?

I can execute it, and will get the action feedback:

Starting VNC server:                                       [  OK  ]

But, a `ps ax | grep vnc` produces no pids.   And `serice vncserver
status` reports

Xvnc is stopped

However, if I manually run `vncserver` and then run `service vncserver
status` it will give me a pid.  I can then connect, using port 5901 (I
remember this from using vnc in the past), and also wondered where to
change this.

The last thing, is `service vncserver stop` will NOT kill the pid, and
clean up the tmp screen in /tmp/.X1-lock.  I have to remove file
manually, or the next server will run on 5902, 5903, etc.  

I only want to open up one port through my iptables set, so it would be
nice if I could manage this process properly.  The biggest problem
though, is that if the machine restarts, vncserver is not running.  I
have to add an entry to rc.local, but then it will be running on the
next avaiable screen.

Any help is appreciated.

Vinny
