what is the limit on number of concurrent Xvnc servers?

[Mike Miller]

I'm running eight Xvnc servers right now, for eight different users, on my
Solaris machine.  Is there a limit on the number of concurrent Xvnc
sessions that can be running?

I see that Xvnc uses ports in the 5901-5999 range and the applet is served
from ports in the 5801-5899 range.  That seems to imply an upper limit of
99 concurrent Xvnc servers.  Is that true, or is there a way around it?

I'm wondering about upper limits because I'm thinking about buying a Linux
machine with 8 GB of RAM and letting many users run VNC.  Does anyone have
any experience with that sort of setup?

Best,

Mike
