Ah but you can...
You can do this in a config file I did it...
vi /etc/sysconfig/vncservers
Add the following line
httpport=port
Then modify /etc/init.d/vncserver
"su ${USER} -c \"cd ~${USER} && [ -f .vnc/passwd ] && vncserver
:${display%%:*} -httpport ${httpport}\""
However another way to change the httpport is to change the display
number. Such as if vncserver is on screen 2 then you would access it via
the web at:
http://vncserver:5802
If you are on display 6
http://vncserver:5806
These are the 580x are the standard port numbers. I don't know if there
is a max on the amount of VNC Servers I would assume it is 9 as on
Display 0 is your local X Windows Server
