I'm looking for pointer for setting up VNC so that access to the system is via

Thanks in advance

This doe what you want - not sure if it's optimal, but by putting it in /etc/rc.local I can see gdm on reboot:

x11vnc -xkb -auth guess -q -rfbauth /home/bhepple/.vnc/passwd -display :0 -clear_all -loop

Doesn't x11vnc always stay tied to the console screen? Sometimes that's what you want, but I generally want independent remote sessions.
