Fortunately enough, it doesn't. do rpm -ql vnc or vncserver or whatever
to find out what files it installed.

It should already have it. If I were you I'd remove the one you
installed from elsewhere. How did you install it? sounds like it was
either a source build or a tarball. "make uninstall" has the potential
to work if it was a source build. Otherwise I guess go to the directory
you unpacked your tar ball and do

rm -f $(tar tzf vncserver.tar.gz)

or some similar incantation.

start out by getting the normal one to work, then play with the exotic
