ok, i had the line wrong in inetd.conf. now i have:

vnc stream tcp nowait root /home/local/bin/Xvnc Xvnc -inetd -query localhost -fp tcp/localhost:5901 -once -geometry 1480x980 -depth 24

and in /etc/services i have

vnc 5901/tcp

i started vncserver:

[EMAIL PROTECTED] users/simon 2> vncserver

New 'X' desktop is pacifica:1

Starting applications specified in /users/simon/.vnc/xstartup
Log file is /users/simon/.vnc/pacifica:1.log


and then tried to connect from a remote machine:

[EMAIL PROTECTED] ~]$ vncviewer pacifica.icmethods.com:1

CConn:       connected to host pacifica.mydomain.com port 5901

Thu Feb 22 09:57:10 2007
main:        End of stream



which connects for a few seconds and then returns me to the shell prompt without displaying the vncviewer window. anyone have an idea why this is happening?
