I'm trying to set up webMathematica and use the Xvnc to avoid requiring 
someone logged into the console 24/7.

If my understadin is correct, the Mathematica kernel needs to connect to 
the Xvnc server, so must have the password. But there is no mention of 
this in section 2.4 of the webMathematica docs.

Is my basic understanding here flawed? It is not working and I can't 
understand how it can work.
