Thanks Brendan for replying to my post. I did run the command vncpasswd. However, Mike MacIsaac pointed me to the right soultion. By right clicking, and selecting "New Window' an xterm session was established. Originally, I thought that "New Window" meant more of the same thing, another greyed out hanging session, so I didn't try it. Also, by upgrading to fvwm2, that problem went away, because fvwm2 automatically brings up a xterm session.
Cheers,
Bernie Wu

Not sure if this applies to your setup below (I use vnc a little
differently) but have you set a vnc passwd for root using the vncpasswd cmd
while logged on as root? Simple, I know, but you don't mention it below and
I like to start with the basics.
Cheers
