The range that Corne refers to is the port assignment range for X displays, and is not actually enforced by any X implementation that I am aware of. > We support 2000 concurrent Xvnc sessions, although we haven't > yet seen any system large enough to handle them.

That is of course to be expected since, as I said, there is no technical limitation on the number of port numbers available to either of X or VNC, and since your software is based on VNC. Just to clarify - there is no intrinsic limit on the number of VNC sessions you can run on a system, just a limit on the automatically-assigned display number pool, which is easily extended, and of course your system's resource constraints.
