Where do you get an "if" and "else" in the /etc/sysconfig/vncservers file?

All you really need is one line.  For example, here is  what it says
in /etc/sysconfig/vncservers on one system that I log into all the time:

VNCSERVERS="1:frankcox"

That's it and that's all, folks.  If you're trying to do something else your
problem is with that something else, not with vncserver.

Now that is something else.  I assume that you mean you want to control the
local desktop with vnc, right?  I have never done that myself, but running "vnc
display 0" through google gives a lot of hits to various howtos which will
probably get you where you're going.
