No need to, already available:


You can have a look at the next pages to do something you might like. 

http://www.sourcecodecorner.com/articles/vnc/linux.asp
... to start a new server on the fly. It is presented for linux which is
just an other unix. I bet you only need to adapt the /etc/services and
/etc/inetd.conf files.
To check if it might work: `Xvnc :4 -query localhost`.
Details to the /etc/inetd.conf file:
- use the path to your Xvnc binary.
- add the fontpath (-fp ...) to reflect your local fontpath (`xrdb -q`)


http://xf4vnc.sourceforge.net/
If you use the XFree86 Xserver: gives access to :0


http://www.hexonet.de/software/x0rfbserver/
If your Xserver uses the framebuffer device: gives access to :0

That's what inetd or xinetd is doing on unix.

Has been done already.

It does not use vnc security but xdhcp login.

THey use 5950 and up. Different numbers for different size and colordepths.

Yep, it's working on all unix machines that can run their copy of Xvnc,
including HP-UX.

Who can point me to a SCO binary of Xvnc?
