OK, too many issues in one thread, I'm going to centre this thread on my apparent problems with configuring the vnc module.

I got this from man xvnc ? 4. am I correct in expecting the desktop name to appear in the tigervnc titlebar? 5. are there any options that can be passed to vnc module ? 6. where is this documented? In effect I'm just guessing the syntax and taking options from xnvc which is not the same as vnc. Some clarification would help a more rigorous approach.
