What's your problem? An open port on 6001?

not by default, if you indicate Xvnc, it should be 5900+display (or whay you
specify with -rfb or which ever you get from inetd if you use -inetd)

Xvnc does not start an X server, it IS an X server. Have you tried to give
it '-nolisten tcp' (note the - v.s. --) as you would give it to your other
Xserver? Try `Xvnc -help` to see a list of options your Xvnc accepts.

If you use vncserver to start Xvnc, vncserver is a perl script that passes
options to Xvnc. Either give vncserver the option or edit it to do so by
default.
