To anyone who can help.
I am trying to get VNC running using the inetd capability and I am having problems. I have VNC running fine when I manually log into the server through FTP or SSH and start it and then start the viewer on my PC.
I have tried a few things I have found on different websites and I have been unable to get it to work. Here are some of the things I have gotten examples from

Here is what I have right now and it is not working.
In my /etc/inetd.cong file I have
vnc3 stream tcp wait [USERNAME] /usr/bin/Xvnc Xvnc -inetd -query 127.0.0.1 -cc 3 -geometry 1265x960 -once securitytypes=none
vnc5 stream tcp wait [UNSERNAME] /usr/bin/Xvnc Xvnc -inetd -query 127.0.0.1 -cc 3 -geometry 1265x960 -once #securitytypes=none
vnc6 stream tcp wait [USERNAME] /usr/bin/Xvnc Xvnc -inetd -query 127.0.0.1 -cc 3 -geometry 1265x960
and in my /etc/services file I have
vnc3 5903/tcp
vnc5 5905/tcp
vnc6 5906/tcp
The main problem I am having is when I use TightVNC (installed on a windowsXP machine) I can login to
hostname:6 fine but I get a TightVNC session with desktop labeled
hostname:1. Then I close that session and try and reopen the same session
hostname:6 I get a session labeled
hostname:2. When I try and login using the other 2 methods
hostname:3 and
hostname:5 nothing happens. By nothing happens it appears the TightVNC is attempting to open the session but doesn't actual open anything. I
do not get a failed to connect message.
If anyone can help it would be greatly appreciated.
Thanks in advance.
PD
