[OpenIndiana-discuss] Xvnc in a zone

[Hans J. Albertsson]

The optimum solution is for me not to have to zlogin or ssh into the 
zone and start vncserver, but be able to login remotely into the zone 
from anywhere within a trusted lan.

So I'd like to try to get that working nicely, just as I have Xvnc 
working well for remote login to the global zone of my non-SRSS servers.
