Hello --

  I just installed vnc on a couple of Redhat 7.1 boxes at work.
Specifically, I installed the rpm avaialable from the Redhat
rawhide site (3.3.3r2).  I can start a server with no problems,

  [aconley@computer1]$ vncserver

  New 'X' desktop is computer1.lbl.gov:1

  Starting applications specified in /home/aconley/.vnc/xstartup
  Log file is /home/aconley/.vnc/computer1.lbl.gov:1.log

but when I try to connect to that machine from another machine
with vncviewer it says

  [aconley@computer2 ~]$ vncviewer computer1:1
  vncviewer: VNC server closed connection

and nothing happens.  This is also the only information that the
log contains.  This is before I am asked for a password, and is
the only output of any kind.

  I perused the FAQ and searched the mailing list archives and can't
seem to find anything that quite matches.  The socket is being
created, and then appropriately destroyed when I use vncserver -kill.
I've tried running as root in case there is some sort of permissions
problem, but the exact same thing occurs.  The name resolution is
working correctly.

  Does anybody out there know what might be causing this?  Or of a way
to get vncserver to output slightly more useful information to the log?
