I have my firewall all set up (PM7100 running IPNR) and VNC server on the 
Mac seems to work just fine (AT&T version).

However, I want to make this a headless machine (no keyboard, mouse, or 
monitor). Every time I boot the Mac without the monitor attached, VNC 
fails to respond from remote.

Is this because the Mac is failing to sense a monitor and thus disabling 
the video port (if I plug a monitor in AFTER it has booted, the monitor 
will not come up either... probably THE most annoying feature of the Mac 
in my book).

Does VNC only work if a display is functioning? Does ChromiVNC on the Mac 
get around this problem? Or am I stuck building a small loopback plug to 
fake the Mac into thinking there is a monitor attached so it inits the 
video card. Or, is there something else going wrong here?
