I can't reproduce the issue. If I add, for example:
Host my_fake_server_name
HostName {my_server_ip_address_or_real_server_name}
User drc
to ~/.ssh/config, then executing
/opt/TurboVNC/bin/vncviewer -via my_fake_server_name
localhost:{my_display_number}
works as expected. Can you post the relevant entry from your
~/.ssh/config file? Perhaps there is a bug that I'm not encountering
for some reason.

I started testing TurboVNC on OL8 this weekend. Immediately I noticed
it seem to start up gnome exclusively, Hoiw can I get it to start
MATE or Xfce? I did this readily with TigerVNC and ~/.vnc/xstartup but
TurboVNC seems to use a different approach. Even a link to some
documentation would be appreciated.
Also when I try to connect using the version of vncviewer included.
/opt/TurboVNC/bin/vncviewer -via uek8desktop01 localhost:1001
I get the error:
Could not create SSH tunnel
java net.UnknownHostException uek8desktop01
I am guessing this is because TurboVNC's vncviewer does not use
~/.ssh/config file to expand the alias. The TigerVNC version connects
as expected which is how I know that TurboVNC is starting up Gnome
I am using version 2.2.6-20210221 from the yum repo.
