Firstly, I'd suggest checking whether your distribution has a tool for
managing xinetd/inetd services (what distribution is it anyway?).

If not, then you'll need to edit the configuration manually.  How to do
this will depend on whether it's running xinetd or inetd.

For xinetd, the config files should be in /etc/xinetd.d,  There'll
probably be a 'vnc' file in there - either delete it or edit it and add
a "disable = yes" line into the service definition.

I'm not sure about inetd - I think that just uses a single
/etc/inetd.conf file.  The vnc service will be defined somewhere in
there - either comment out or remove the appropriate line.

You'll then want to restart the inetd/xinetd service.

Cheers,
