Install VNC as a service and it should work fine.

Subject: Connection Refused when the server is not logged in?


I have vnc setup and working correctly, but only when the 'server' is 
logged in. If I reboot the server and the login screen comes up, I 
cannot connect to vnc. If the server is logged in and I can see the 
desktop locally, I can connect without any problems.

The problem only seems to show up when the server I am trying to connect

to is not logged in. Is this a bug/feature, or am I doing something
wrong?

I check to make sure the vncserver is running while the server is logged

out. I even logged in via ssh and restarted it. I also made sure that 
the port was unblocked. Everything seems to work fine as soon as I log 
in locally, but not if its logged out.

Server: CentOS 4.0
Viewer: Windows XP SP2

Any ideas as to what may be wrong here?
