I'm trying to setup VNC on an HPUX machine. The browser viewer
approach works letting me connect to a windows machine running
the VNC server. I'm having trouble using vncviewer, or setting up
vncserver on the hpux machine.

I'm running the following version of hpux
% uname -a
HP-UX hostname B.11.11 U 9000/785 2001079857 unlimited-user license


When I try to run the viewer it does a core dump with the message
no logger found! stderr

% vncviewer

no logger found! stderr
Segmentation fault

Similarly, when I try to launch the server the log file hostname:2.log lists
the following

no logger found! stderr
Unrecognized option: -desktop
use: X [:<display>] [option]

-ac                    disable access control restrictions

I'd appreciate any ideas from the VNC community on
what I'm missing in setting this up. I've tried searching
the archive, but came up empty. If my search technique
is missing an answer to this, please refer me to the
relevant messages.

  Thanks,
