Description H.J. Lu 2006-11-20 20:50:39 UTC 
vnc-server needs xorg-x11-xauth, but doesn't list it as required:

[root@gnu-64 hjl]# grep xauth /usr/bin/vncserver 
$xauthorityFile = "$ENV{XAUTHORITY}" || "$ENV{HOME}/.Xauthority";
open (XAUTH, "|xauth -f $xauthorityFile source -");
$cmd .= " -auth $xauthorityFile";
    foreach $cmd ("uname","xauth","Xvnc","vncpasswd") {
[root@gnu-64 hjl]# 

When it is installed with yum, xorg-x11-xauth isn't install automatically.
