This got buried in my inbox. I'm not sure if anyone replied to you
off-list, but I use RHEL 4 as a build platform as well. The secret to
building Xvnc on that platform is to use the unix/build-xorg-7.4 script,

More than likely so. The color shifting would be consistent with trying
to draw an RGBX bitmap when the system expects XRGB, and I used to see
the same problems on Sparc TurboVNC clients whenever the pixel format
wasn't converted properly. The code that handles that in TigerVNC

Just a shot in the dark, but it may have something to do with SELinux.
On newer systems, GDM will disallow certain things (such as invoking

Yes. For a little historical perspective, TightVNC basically spawned
