[Doug Palmer]

Cool. Next step: how do I make it run at boot, as my user?

Here's mine, choose on starting with the name option, "vncserver -name
kde" for kde or "vncserver -name windowmaker" for windowmaker or
"vncserver" alone to get twm:

#!/bin/sh

xrdb $HOME/.Xresources
xsetroot -solid grey

case "$VNCDESKTOP" in
kde)
        startkde &
        ;;
windowmaker)
        windowmaker &
        ;;
*)
        xterm -geometry 80x24+10+10 -ls -title "$VNCDESKTOP Desktop" &
        twm &
        ;;
esac
