VNC & VIM & Colours

Hi,

I am using vnc to connect to a solaris box. When a terminal is created, the default background is white. And when I use "vim" editor, I am able to get the syntax colours and all.

But I want a black background in the terminal. So I started the xterm with the following option, xterm -bg black -fg white, and it creates a xterm window with black back ground. But "vim" editor is not showing syntax highlighted in colours.

How can I get a terminal (not a xterm window) with black background color with the "vim" editor having syntax highlighted.

Solaris Version
SunOS 5.8 Generic_117350-62 sun4u sparc SUNW,Sun-Fire-880

The following operands are supported: [server][::port|:display] Specifies the VNC server to connect to. The VNC server can be either a hostname, or an IP address. If the server is an IPv6 address, it must be enclosed by square brackets. The address can optionally be followed by two colons (::) and the VNC port number, or alter- natively by one colon (:) and the display where Vinagre should run. If a port is not specified, default value of 5900 will be used. If the value is lower than 1024, 5900 will be added to it. For example, ":0" means "5900" and ":1" means ":5901". If only a port is specified, but not the hostname, localhost will be assumed. Possible values for the display are between 0 and 1024. If a display number greater than 1024 is specified, it will be assumed to be a port. Note that you can't specify the port and the display at the same time. EXAMPLES
