Well, that would eliminate the need to put :NN after the hostname, but not the elegant solution I was looking for, and a large usage of IP addresses... I thought of starting a script in the Xsession file that would lookup what port the user should be using, and then connect to that port after a login with [gkx]dm, but that would add more overhead with the X clients communicating with the Xvnc server, which sent data to xvncviewer in (possibly) the same machine, and then sending it to another Xvnc server that was created from the inetd connection and then finally going out over the network to my client. As you can see not very effecient. Anyway, I'm using the one port per user thing right now and it's working ok... But don't hesitate to let me know if you have any more ideas that might help.
