1. find/locate Xvnc
2. add the directory it is located in to your PATH variable

Simple as that (I think)
If you can't find Xvnc, check this: http://www.softpanorama.org/Xwindows...s.shtml#Server

Set the path with
export PATH=$PATH:/usr/X11/bin::/usr/openwin/bin
export DISPLAY=<host>:1
xhost +
vncserver :1
set the password

That should work.
