Proposed edit to VNC server Wiki entry

Sure, it just so happens that I hosed my system (got a little
overzealous stripping out extraneous packages) and can start from a
clean install...!

Hey, off topic a bit, what's your opinion on using tar for backups?
Here's something I found for Ubuntu:

Well Byron, just as you suspected, there is some missing info in the
vnc-ltsp-config section of the VNC-Server howto
(http://wiki.centos.org/HowTos/VNC-Server#head-29f6855e8f3684dc6c005d439
9f60886edf611ec).
There is only the need to have:
[xdmcp]
Enable=true
[security]
DisallowTCP=false
in the /etc/gdm/custom.conf (plus "init 3; init 5", plus any iptables
issues, plus any selinux issues). I did not even remember that the
modifying of /etc/gdm/custom.conf was being handled by a "sanity
script".

A quick google'n turns up indications that others have tried and failed
to use these docs (but did not report it to our forums).

Thank you for your patience and understanding in helping figure this
issue out.

Would you like to take the step of validating for you that the only
additions are the 2 custom.conf additions (plus "init 3; init 5")?

Thank you

PJ
