This was solved on the mailing list last year. I can't remember off hand what it was, but it was due to identifying the start display and if in use add one to it. And yes, you will have to change the Oracle display number in order to use it. The real question is how many ppl are going to be using it at one time.

The details of VNC don't change and it still uses one port per user. I assume you are trying to make it so multiple users can use the Oracle Applications. Unless they share a display number I don't think it is possible. -- William Hooper Hey, this isn't my tagline !
