For unix machines, I'd prefer the setup as on
http://www.sourcecodecorner.com/articles/vnc/linux.asp. It focusses on
RedHatLinux. Most unix distributions only need to adapt the /etc/services
and /etc/inetd.conf files.

Minor details: In the /etc/inetd.conf files, the Xvnc app is started from a
user that not always is allowed to start Xservers. Check which user starts
your local X-server (see: `ps -ef | grep X`) and use that acount. See `man
inetd.conf` for details.

An alternate setup I bookmarked for some reason:
