Hi,

I'm trying to setup a development server to support ~20 s/w engineers
who will gain access via RealVNC from their windows desktops. I need to
provide resumable/persistent connections.  Any vnc connections need to
be password protected.  Would prefer users to manage their own display
geometry and apps at startup etc (eg, have a $HOME/.vnc/config and
xstartup).

The only Red Hat specific guide I can find on the subject is 3 years old
now:
http://kbase.redhat.com/faq/FAQ_45_3976.shtm

Could the VNC community please comment on how I could achieve the above
please.  I'm running "Red Hat Ent Server 5.2", and "Xvnc Ent Ed E4.4.2
(r13160)".

Whilst testing I've managed to create four working entries in xinetd but
alas these aren't persistent.  I've tried to call /usr/bin/vncserver
from xinetd (instead of Xvnc) but keep getting errors.

Here are examples of my xinetd entries:

#====================
#xinetd entry which works but not persistent
service xvnc-1600x1200x16
{
        type = UNLISTED
        disable = no
        socket_type = stream
        protocol = tcp
        wait = no
        user = nobody
        server = /usr/bin/Xvnc
        server_args = -inetd -query localhost -once -fp
/usr/share/X11/fonts/misc/ -extension XFIXES -securitytypes=none
-geometry 1600x1200
        port = 5904
}
#====================
#xinetd entry I've been trying to get working
service xvnc-test
{
        type = UNLISTED
        disable = no
        socket_type = stream
        protocol = tcp
        user = chris
        server = /usr/bin/vncserver
        wait = yes
        port = 5920
}
#====================


Any help/advice is much appreciated.

Thanks,
Chris
