These fonts are installed. Very wierd.
If I run the command:
pkg_info | grep xorg

Any ideas folks?
Try to erase .vnc and start server again.
I tried that one to no avail. I just re-built/installed the xfont
server, and all its dependencies, but this still did not fix the
problem. portupgrade -fr xfs-1.0.5,1
I feel like ripping out all the ports and starting from scratch, but I
can't do that as this is a production server :o(
If you are using TightVNC server you may try to install X11VNC and
forget about TightVNC server and vise verse. They should not conflict
each other. You can also try to pkg_delete and to clean configuration
files and reinstall the VNC server you are using.
I am little bit surprised that you are running X let alone VNC server on
the production machine.
Are you aware of the fact that you can display programs that run on your
server on the another machine in X even though X itself doesn't run on
your server. That can be done via ssh tunel.
Read the page 91 from the book Secure Architectures with OpenBSD.
Best,
Predrag
