This is precisely what the "inetd" daemon does on Unix systems. Both
the
AT&T and the Tridia Unix based VNC distributions of Xvnc support a
command
line option called "-inetd" which is used in conjunction with inetd. By
configuring inetd (via /etc/inetd.conf usually) to start Xvnc when a
connection to a known port (like 5900) occurs, you can dynamically
create
a new Xvnc desktop for every client.
The "-inetd" command line option causes the entire VNC/RFB protocol to
be handled via stdin/stdout *and* prevents the new Xvnc desktop from
accepting VNC connections as usual. Therefore, the "-inetd" option
prevents a user from disconnecting from a desktop and later reconnecting
to that desktop with all of the previous applications in the same state
as before.
