I've seen VNC set up various ways.  One way is to run it as
a service on and a user needs to log in to the OS after connecting.
Another is to run one instance per user on a set of ports.  Then
it's also possible to have either of these methods get started in
the inittab file, and have them respawn if they die for any reason.

So...my question is...how is vnc configured to start on your system?
