I'm trying to setup a sshvnc LTSP box for teachers and students to 
access files from home. I'm using Derek Dresser's instructions.
http://network.gouldacademy.org/misc/sshvnc/sshvnc.html   I have hit a 
wall. I get "sshvnc failed to open a forwarding channel to 
localhost:5901". It appears that the request is not spawning the vnc 
server. If I manually setup a server with a password and then try to 
connect, all I need is the extra password for the vnc server and it will 
connect, but I still will not get a terminal window. I created the vnc 
file in the xinetd.d directory, edited the sshvnc-applet.htm, and 
created the vnc_inetd_httpd scriptfile in the etc/x11r6/bin directory. I 
just can not seem to get passed this problem.
Any pointers?
Mark
