If it is to give access to Window$ users, have a lok at http://www.sourcecodecorner.com/articles/vnc/linux.asp . Major advantage: no need to manually start the vncserver. Major disadvantage: vnc session crashes with Window$. > > What can cause this? Configuration change?

For the real debugging, browse trough the vncserver script and see how Xvnc is started. Try Xvnc --help to see it's options. THen figure out what your prefereed options are.
