This worked for me (on SUSE linux). Grey screen until I did point 3.

1       Edit /etc/services to include :-

        vnc1            5950/tcp                        # VNC
        vnc2            5951/tcp                        # VNC
        vnc3            5952/tcp                        # VNC

2       Vi /etc/inetd.conf to include :-

        vnc1    stream  tcp     nowait  nobody  /usr/sbin/Xvnc
Xvnc -inetd -broadcast -once -geometry 640x480 -depth 24
        vnc2    stream  tcp     nowait  root    /usr/sbin/Xvnc
Xvnc -inetd -broadcast -once -geometry 800x600 -depth 24
        vnc3    stream tcp      nowait  root    /usr/sbin/Xvnc
Xvnc -inetd -broadcast -once -geometry 1152x768 -depth 24

        NB : you can change broadcast to query hostname if other Xservers answer

3       vi /etc/X11/xdm/xdm-config to REM out :-

        ! DisplayManager.requestPort:   0
