Yes, that is what I have running now, I think <g>

I cannot, however, connect from my remote machine. Even if I turn off
the firewalls at both ends of the link, I get a "connection refused"
when I run vncviewer. I can't even nping to port 5901, which is what
is configured. I have run xhost + to add both client and server to
access list.
Some unix weirdness somewhere....

because I have a pet halibut?
