So far I did base debian install "no task select", apt-get install
dropbear, xvnc4server, icewm. Vncserver starts with no problems except
missing bunch of fonts. I do have xfonts-base installed. But vncviewer
cannot do the connection. When I do netstat -an I can see Xvnc listens
on TCP6

tcp        0     52 192.168.10.118:ssh      192.168.10.117:3730     ESTABLISHED
tcp6       0      0 [::]:5901               [::]:*                  LISTEN

Is that what cause the problem ?
