By all rights, there should be a way to get gdm to manage a vncserver, and put its login prompt there. I'm not sure exactly how this would go, but I imagine it would involve pointing the Servers section of gdm.conf to the Xvnc executable instead of the regular X server, with appropriate command line options. On the other hand, this sounds partially like a Bad Idea. At the very least, you should ensure that root logins are disabled, and a large fail delay set.
