This question is related to starting xfce for
use with tightVNC.
The ~/.vnc/xstartup script that runs when vncserver starts gives an
error message each time:
Couldn't start Xvnc; trying default font path
Please set correct font path in the vncserver script.

I have VNC enterprize 4.1 running on a Redhat EL4 server through
xinetd. All configurations are as specified and VNC works with KDE desktop.
But!
The cut/copy/paste does not work. vncconfig is not being loaded at
startup. James W. in several posts (per google on vnc xinetd xstartup

If this really is what Brad wants, then I think he'll get the best
results from editing his xstartup file to have nothing run (at least for
Solaris) and then start vncserver with the '-query localhost' argument.
His first connectino with VNC viewer will give

Hello,
We use many Solaris (8 & 9) machines to create virtual desktops (Xvnc),
and have done so successfully for years.
However, one Solaris 9 machine has us stumped,
because .vnc/xstartup won't create xterm or twm.
However, after Xvnc is started, one can successfully force
xterm and
w when you first log into a CDE
session. I can open and close them, browse through them, but it doesn't
show the rest of the CDE desktop.
Most of the desktop is still the grey Xwindow.
I've attached the log files and a copy of the xstartup file.
If you feel it's necessary, I c
ls when I started educatingmy users on this option.
Unfortunately the only support calls I still get are when people
try to use the -query and they have clients setup in their
xstartup script. That only causes problems.
It doesn't seem to be that complicated to skip the xstartup when

Vncserver is just a script for convenience (like startx). Once you get to
a certain point of complexity, it doesn't make sense to use

Hi,
I might be wrong, but I always have problems when I run vncserver
with -query, -indirect, or -broadcast, because not only do the
XDMCP windows appear but the clients in my .vnc/xstartup script
also try to connect. Sometimes I even end up with 2 windows
mangers trying to connect, and worse

Hi,
I've only been experimenting with VNC for a few days now.
So far I think it's wonderful.
Now I'm wondering if I can get a little more pizzazz in my desktop.
Has anybody got a window manger like Gnome or KDE running with VNC?
It looks like it's just a matter of editing

If security is not an issue, it is no problem to have inetd start Xvnc
I know vncserver can start applications. I must use Xvnc in -inetd mode, to
support multiple users and non-persistent sessions.
I was just thinking, since inetd starts Xvnc with a user name, it would be
nice if it could start the apps specified in .vnc/xstartup or xinitrc, and
not require XDMCP

Yes, -inetd is to be used from inetd (or xinetd or tcpserve or stuf like
that) Hence it get started without
When Xvnc is run in -inetd mode, is there some reason it does not execute
xstartup or .xinitrc ?
I realize it can be configured to use XDMCP, I'm just wondering why this
simpler mechanism is not utilized.
