    vncserver -geometry XxY

The beauty of this is that X and Y do not have to be standard screen
resolution numbers.

For example, I run both my home and office machines at 1024x768. I am
currently at home connected to my office machine via vnc. In order to
get a good sized display but not obscure (e.g.) the task bar, this is
the command I run:

    vncserver -depth 16 -geometry 920x690

works a treat.
