Hello,

I am running Xvnc 4.1.1 on Debian etch using the following entry in
/etc/inetd.conf:

5900    stream  tcp     nowait  xvnc  /usr/bin/Xvnc     Xvnc -inetd -query localhost -once -geometry 1024x768 -depth 16 -SecurityTypes none -desktop host.example.org

This setup is working very well; I am able to connecct to the server
using vncviewer on either a Windows or Linux machine and get the kdm
login prompt via XDMCP.

However, the one thing that does not automatically work is the clipboard
transfer.  Naturally, I can manually run vncconfig -nowin &; but where
can I add this command so that it is executed automatically for every
Xvnc session?

Thanks,
--Joe
