How to access many X Linux sessions from VNC?

Sorry for my poor english, I'm new in linux world, and i'm in trouble to do remote connections, at the same time, from windows clients (via vnc) to a linux server (debian), I've tried vncserver and x11vnc.
My difficult are connecting many windows xp (via vnc), because actually, when I try to access the server from different windows clients, it always log with the same user (nor ask for user, only for password), it occur even when trying different port, for exemple 192.168.0.x:2.
Someone to help me please?
thanks

NAME
vncpasswd - change the VNC password SYNOPSIS
vncpasswd [passwd-file] vncpasswd -f DESCRIPTION
vncpasswd allows you to set the password used to access VNC desktops. Its default behavior is to prompt for a VNC password and then store an obfuscated version of this password to passwd-file (or to $HOME/.vnc/passwd if no password file is specified.) The vncserver script runs vncpasswd the first time you start a VNC desktop, and it invokes Xvnc with the appropriate -rfbauth option. vncviewer can also be given a password file to use via the -passwd option. The password must be at least six characters long (unless the -f command-line option is used-- see below), and only the first eight charac- ters are significant. Note that the stored password is not encrypted securely - anyone who has access to this file can trivially find out the plain-text password, so vncpasswd always sets appropriate permissions (read and write only by the owner.) However, when accessing a VNC desktop, a challenge-response mechanism is used over the wire making it hard for anyone to crack the password simply by snooping on the network. OPTIONS
-f Filter mode. Read a plain-text password from stdin and write an encrypted version to stdout. Note that in filter mode, short or even empty passwords will be silently accepted. FILES
$HOME/.vnc/passwd Default location of the VNC password file. SEE ALSO
