Hmmm, maybe I don't understand, but so do I. I run xvnc thusly: vncserver :97 -name blah -depth 16 -geometry 1272x992 And 'vncserver' is a perl script that runs xvnc for me, then I connect via the viewer from my win2000 machine (via display blah:97). When I do this, ~/.vnc/xstartup is sourced. Doesn't this happen for everyone? I think this is according to the docs. -- Jeff Walker MatchLogic, Inc.
