I have a vnc server running on my version of CentOS 6. However, when I remote in I have limited options in the Gnome GUI such as not being able to shut down or edit network connections and so forth. Obviously I need to be able to change these things over VNC and would like to do so through the GUI. Below is my xstartup script.

You agreed not to bump posts when you registered here. We are not "on call", and you barely waited a single minute before bumping anyway -- if you don't get an answer immediately, wait!
I take it when you login as this user when physically at the machine, you get permissions to shut down the system, etc? I think the trouble is you're bypassing the usual Gnome login system by logging in direct with VNC...
Might you need to run gnome-session before you run other things?
It's funny. A while ago we had someone with the exact opposite problem, how to restrict a remote user from getting to a real login screen!
My appoligies for the bump, and I originally posted this about 12 hours and just updated it twice by accident. Would I need to move gnome-session & to the top or how might that be done?
Thanks in advance.

Fixed problem myself by changing gnome-session & in startup script to exec gnome-session &
