Hi,

I'm trying to get vncserver to work with XFree86 on Red Hat Enterprise 3.
I've been following directions from realvnc.com, and I've added the following to my XF86Config:

Section "Module"
   ...
   Subsection "vnc"
       Option "Desktop" "MyDesktop"
       Option "IdleTimeout" "600"
       Option "SecurityTypes" "VncAuth"
       Option "UserPasswdVerifier" "VncAuth"
       Option "PasswordFile" "/root/.vnc/passwd"
   EndSubSection
EndSection

I've set root's vnc password using vncpasswd and rebooted to restart the X server.
I can see the vnc server listening on port 5900.
When I try to connect with a vnc client, I type the password and immediately get an "Authentication failure". Any ideas? I think I must be getting close here ... any help greatly appreciated!

Ken
