if I understand the structure correctly, using xinetd won't work as
xinetd spawns a new daemon subprocess for each connection on the same
port. the first connection *might* succeed, but each subsequent one
would fail since the new process would try to bind to a port another
process is already listening on. on top of that, I don't believe the
first one would work since it would also try to bind to the default port
which would be bound already to the xinetd process, and therefore not
available to the vnc process to start listening to.

a better way to do multiple startups for different users would be either
the /etc/rc* structure or somehow through /etc/inittab. each session
would need it's own setup and/or custom startup scripts to spawn under
the correct user account, but it is certainly doable.

Subject: xvnc & inetd

I need to use inetd to start xvnc. I would like it to start some 
applications for each user, in the way that vncserver starts the 
applications from .../.vnc/xstartup. Is there a way to do this? I want 
to start the same apps for all users so it doesn't need to be user
specific.

Thanks,
Kevin
