Thanks,

The VNC server can run from inetd bringing up a [xkg]dm login prompt
when someone tries to connect to that port. The functionality was
absorbed into VNC proper in 3.3.3r2, so Woody should be fine. This
link[1] is still the best (only?) documentation on the feature found
going through the VNC site (Contributed...Modifications and
add-ons...iXvnc).

Note that _w_dm is not on this list. The Wings Display Manger has a
known bug that prevents it from being used to create an auto-launching
VNC session.
