way around for needing -fp option in inetd implementation

[Geof Gibson]

Yo list,
I have solved  my problem with spawning from inetd by adding -fp /usr/ 
share/fonts/X11/misc to the Xvnc command lines in inetd.conf.

What is odd is that I don't get the 'could not open default font  
'fixed'' with any other software or, if I start the server with  
'vncserver :62'
Now, I did add the -fp option to the vncserver script, so I understand  
why that's working.  I don't have to have this option on in inetd on a  
different server I'm running, so ...

That would indicate there is a way around having this option in  
inetd.conf.  I do, in fact, have this same entry in xorg.conf:  
'FontPath "/usr/share/fonts/X11/misc" '
It would seem that would be enough, but with the -fp <fontpath>, Xvnc  
would crash on startup.
Does anyone know a way to make the inetd launch work without the font  
path in inetd.conf?

Apologies if this is one of those 'simple' things.  I did Google and  
RTFM, but I haven't solved this.

Thanks.
