Hi Chad, You could use a command llike su <user1> -c "vncserver -geometry 1024x768 -name gnome :1 su <user2> -c "vncserver -geometry 800x640 -name gnome :2
in your inittab to be able to run at boot up. Alternatively you could make it a service under the user nobody and give the people a logon screen so you could have more users connected and each has his own environment. You need to enable xdmcp in gdm or whatever X11 server you use. Set the ipv4 packet forwarding in your rc.local. Add the port number for the tcp in your services file. Create a script in xinetd.d as myvnc or something. Restart your xinetd and you should be able to use the service now which is started under nobody. Let me know if you need more info on this.
