I have a problem
installing VNC on Red Hat 8 and wonder if anyone
has time to comment.
I'm using the RPM of VNC that comes with the latest
distribution of RHL 8.
Our application is to use VNC to allow multiple users
to access the server. (This is a teaching environment)
Basically the approach works on RHL 7-7.2 but not 8 and
is shown below.
When we try to attach seems like there is no connection. It
doesn't appear as if xinetd is firing XVNC with proper arguments.
Xinetd version 2.3.7-5
vnc & vnc-server version 3.3.3r2-39
Any help appreciated.

===================================
Modify /etc/services with lines like 'vnc-800x600x16 5960/tcp'
Create separate definition files in /etc/xinetd.d folder similar to:
FILENAME: /etc/xinet.d/vnc-800x600x16
service vnc-800x600x16
{
disable=no
user = root
socket_type = stream ...
...
server = [path]/Xvnc
server_args = -inetd -query ...& geometry settings
}
Enable xdmcp in file /etc/X11/gdm/gdm.conf
