In the "start" subroutine exit the line:
"su ${USER} -c \"cd ~${USER} && [ -f .vnc/passwd ] && vncserver :${display%%:*}\""
to be:
"su ${USER} -c \"cd ~${USER} && [ -f .vnc/passwd ] && vncserver -httpport 6900 :${display%%:*}\""
Seems as if there should be a way to specify this in a config file...and yes I assumed the Xvnc man page would have had it. :-)
Hmmm, just tried editing that file and specifying a different port, restarted, and the vnc server continues to run on tcp port 5900 (I had previously thought it was 5800).
If I stop the server, I do an nmap afterwards and it's still running/listening and I can connect with a client.
/etc/init.d/vncserver stop
Shutting down VNC server: [ OK ]
