VNCserver not starting

VNCserver not starting

Greetings list,
   I 'm trying to run VNC between two machines on my local network but I
cannot start vncserver on the server machine:-

[root@(protected) bin]# service vncserver start
Starting VNC server: 1:nick [FAILED]

In /var/log/messages I can see:
Apr 29 13:04:01 dell vncserver: vncserver start failed

I 've modified /etc/sysconfig/vncservers to include
VNCSERVERS= "1:nick "

Server is up2date rh9.0 and vncserver is vnc-server-3.3.3r2-47
from the rh9 distro.

There is no firewall on either machine.


I 'm not getting any clues about why vncserver will not start
and the man page is a bit brief - does anyone have any pointers
on where to look?
