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

[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:

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?
