Hi
I did enable vncserver by the command( I meant installation by that.)
I am able to use VNC client on my Windows machines to login to my solaris server and view its GUI.
The problem starts here!
I login using VNC into my server.
I open Terminal window on Solaris and type a command like prstat -a . I can see its live output.
THEN I close my VNC window.
I again login to my Solaris machines and find that the terminal window is still open but there is nothing shown in it . Just the usual :
root@server#
Why cant I see my previous work ?

XVNC(1) General Commands Manual XVNC(1)
NAME
Xvnc - a VNC server
SYNOPSIS
Xvnc [-rfbport port] [-rfbwait time] [-nocursor] [-rfbauth passwd-file] [-httpd dir] [-httpport port] [-deferupdate time] [-economic-
translate] [-lazytight] [-desktop name] [-alwaysshared] [-nevershared] [-dontdisconnect] [-localhost] [-interface ipaddr] [-inetd]
[-compatiblekbd] [X-options...]
DESCRIPTION
Xvnc is a VNC (Virtual Network Computing) server. It acts like an X server with a virtual display. The display can be seen by a VNC
viewer application, which may be running on a different machine: see vncviewer(1).
It is built inside the source code tree of XFree86, and shares many options with it.
Note that if you are going to use VNC on an untrusted network, you will need to use SSH to prevent unauthorised access. See
<URL:http://www.uk.research.att.com/vnc/sshvnc.html> for details.
OPTIONS
The VNC-specific options are as follows:
-rfbport port
TCP port for RFB protocol.
-rfbwait time
Maximum time, in milliseconds, to wait for RFB client.
-nocursor
Don't put up a cursor.
-rfbauth passwd-file
Use authentication on RFB protocol from specified file; see vncpasswd(1).
-httpd dir
Serve files via HTTP from here.
-httpport port
Port for HTTP.
-deferupdate time
Time, in milliseconds, to defer updates (default 40).
-economictranslate
Use less memory-hungry translation.
-lazytight
Disable "gradient" filter in tight encoding.
-desktop name
Set VNC desktop name (default x11).
-alwaysshared
Always treat new clients as shared.
-nevershared
Never treat new clients as shared.
-dontdisconnect
Don't disconnect existing clients when a new non-shared connection comes in (refuse new connection instead).
-localhost
Only allow connections from localhost.
-interface ipaddr
Only bind to the interface with given ipaddr.
-inetd Xvnc is launched by inetd.
-compatiblekbd
Set META key = ALT key, as in the original (AT&T) version of Xvnc.
