Where would one add this to automate the process of clearing the file? Since one now creates a startup file as: /etc/systemd/system/multi-user.target.wants/vncserver@:79.servic e Now that has the ExecStart and ExecStop the uses the vncserver %i That start and stop only has running the vncserver, so how would one add it to automatically remove the file before starting it, which now fails if it does exist? > > On Mar 24, 2012, at 2:55 AM, "Michael D.
