Please be aware, if you use the Script, place a password you want to use for
vnc login into vncpasswd file, read about the -passwdfile option in the x11vnc
documentation. You can the entire script into a file and run it with Bash. You
can edit the lines that start the panel and window manager

Or xpra ("screen for X"), or NX, in which case you don't need to run
full screen.

I Would recommend Xvfb and x11vnc rather than Xvnc.
Many X apps will not run on Xvnc since it does not support some newer X
extensions. Especially Qt apps.
Here is an example script:
Xvfb :2 -screen 0 1015x690x24 &
sleep 6
#
x11vnc -nevershared -display :2 -forever -passwdfile vncpasswd &
DISPLAY=:2
#export DISPLAY
sleep 3
DBUSLAUNCH=/usr/bin/dbus-launch
eval `$DBUSLAUNCH --sh-syntax --exit-with-session`
eval $(gnome-keyring-daemon --start --components=secrets)
xfce4-panel &
#lxpanel --profile LXDE &
#sawfish &
openbox &
sleep 2
konsole &
#startkde &
while :; do
sleep 20000
echo "tick"
done;
