----
login as user
open terminal application
$ vncpasswd # set user password for logging in via vnc

then su to root

$ su -
# emacs /etc/sysconfig/vncservers
# something like this...
VNCSERVERS="1:craig"
ARGS="-geometry 800x600 -depth 8 -alwaysshared "
# Season to taste

Then also in my home directory...

# cat ~/.vnc/xstartup
#!/bin/sh
#
# Uncomment the following two lines for normal desktop:
unset SESSION_MANAGER
exec /etc/X11/xinit/xinitrc
#[ -r $HOME/.Xresources ] && xrdb $HOME/.Xresources
#xsetroot -solid grey
#vncconfig -iconic &
#xterm -geometry 80x24+10+10 -ls -title "$VNCDESKTOP Desktop" &
#gnome-session &
