Start of VNC with Solaris

Hello,

We have machines running Solaris 2.8
These are part of a process control system. A selection menu after the launch of Solaris can be selected whether the Solaris desktop or Leitsoftware to start.

VNC server is up and running when the Solaris user interface is started or when the Leitsoftware starts.
Terminating the particular session and the VNC server is stopped.
So far so good.
The server is not running when you see at the beginning of the selection menu.
And that's my problem.
The server should run forever, Iwould like to to start on a Windows desktop,each session . However, since at the time the server is not running this is not possible.
It would be best if the VNC server running after start of Solaris.
The start command for the server I have registered at:
/ export / home / cmd / stopreg
Probably this is the wrong place.
Where can I enter the start command the best?

Thanks
Eckart

It is easy to write a cron script that detects if Xvnc is running for the current user and starts it if it is missing. This takes care of Xvnc crashes as well as reboots. A common tactic is to have a ~/.Xvnc_pid file containing the pid of the last Xvnc.
