Hi,

I'm trying to use Xvnc on Debian via inetd.
I've edited /etc/services
-- vnc             5900/tcp

I've edited /etc/inetd.conf
-- vnc stream tcp nowait nobody /usr/bin/X11/Xvnc -inetd -query localhost 
-once -geometry 640x480 -depth 8

I've edited /etc/X11/gdm/gdm.conf
-- [xdmcp]
-- Enable=true


Restarted inetd, restarted gdm


and then I try to connect with a vncviewer to the machine. All I get is "Not a 
valid VNC server"
I've tried this (server side) on a RedHat 7.3 machine (xinetd instead of 
inetd) and it works perfectly, but on debian (server side) I can't get it to 
work.

I've tried the original debian packages of vncserver/vnccommon and compiled a 
new version of Xvnc from the realvnc site, alas the same error.

What am I doing wrong, or what have I missed ?

Hoping anyone can help me,
