Trying to get inetd startup working on AIX.  So far I have

- Installed VNC from www.bullfreeware.com after running across a message
that the IBM copy would not work under inetd.
- Added an entry to /etc/services "vnc 5950/tcp"
- Added an entry to /etc/inetd.conf "vnc     stream  tcp     nowait
nobody  /usr/local/bin/Xvncinetd"
- Added a script as /usr/local/bin/Xvncinetd:
#!/bin/sh
export PATH=/usr/local/bin:$PATH
/usr/local/bin/Xvnc -inetd -query localhost -once -geometry 1024x768
-depth 24 -desktop VNCserver -fp tcp/localhost:7100
- refresh -s inetd

Sometimes I get:

usplsai003:/# vncviewer localhost:50     
VNC server supports protocol version 3.3 (viewer 3.3)
No authentication needed
Desktop name "nobody's VNCserver desktop
(usplsai003.txpln.us.eds.com:1)"
Connected to VNC server, using protocol version 3.3
VNC server default format:
  32 bits per pixel.
  Most significant byte first in each pixel.
  True colour: max red 255 green 255 blue 255, shift red 0 green 8 blue

Using default colormap which is TrueColor.  Pixel format:
  32 bits per pixel.
  Most significant byte first in each pixel.
  True colour: max red 255 green 255 blue 255, shift red 16 green 8 blue
0
Same machine: preferring raw encoding
Server has turned zlib compression on
Unknown message type 70 from VNC server
usplsai003:/# 

When I do I get a grey screen paint and then I get the "Unknown message
type 70 from VNC server" message.

Sometimes I get:
usplsai003:/# vncviewer localhost:50
VNC server supports protocol version 3.3 (viewer 3.3)
Unknown authentication scheme from VNC server: 172384628
usplsai003:/# 

When I do I get no output.

To verify my XDMCP configuration I had Hummingbird to an XDMCP Query and
it successfully returned the CDE login screen.
