I have just recently succesfully finished my first ever installation of Debian 
(Woody).I wish to install VNCServer on this machine, but have been unable to do so up 
to date. Using apt-get install vncserver I can succesfully install the vncserver, but 
according to the VNC faq's and documentation an xstartup file should have been created 
in the ~/.vnc folder.The folder is there, but the file is not. I have manually created 
this file using VI and entered the information I think is correct (partially copied 
from the web).I will paste the file contents below.

#!/bin/sh

#xrdb $HOME/.Xresources
#xsetroot -solid grey
#nxterm -geometry 80x24+10+10 -ls -title "$VNCDESKTOP Desktop" &
#twm &
#control-panel &
#xfm &
exec /etc/X11/xinit/xinitrc &

This however, does not help at all.It seems to me like the VNC server is not even 
looking at this file?
P.S If I leave the installation as is (after apt-get), the server starts up fine, but 
I get a grey screen when I log on using a VNCViewer

Thank you in advance
