Also, when I kill the server by typing % vncserver -kill :1 The server dies successfully but leaves my CDE desktop completely unresponsive to any keystrokes. I then have to login remotely and reboot the system in order to get the keyboard back.
I use TightVNC to connect to a Solaris 8 server from many different windows systems. If I killed the server, then the viewer normally just terminates. Maybe I misunderstood, but which machine is it that is frozen? I assumed it was the windows machine, from which you launched the viewer. Nothing I know of would cause the solaris machine to hang at the console (assuming you're running the server as a normal user). If it is the windows viewer that hangs, I assume you tried bringing up the task manager to kill the viewer?
