Thanks for the information. Even I have also not tried as to what limit
the numbers can go. We have gone up to only 15. Also I did not know that
one could assign a predefined number. When vncserver was running, never
bothered to read the man page :-).

Regards,
Jaideep Bhatia

Hello -

DISCLAIMER - I am not able to try this in FreeBSD, so the limit may
differ.

'man vncserver' gives:
     vncserver
          [:_number_]
... etc ...

     :_number_
          The dislay number to use.  If omitted, the next
          free display number is used.

There is apparently a limit on display numbers - I was able to assign
'99'
but not '101' - but the number seems to be greater than '2'. YMMV.
