I'm trying to run vncserver on a clients machine on a specific user account.

so the "run" script goes something like....

exec seguidgid user launch_desktop_apps &
exec seguidgid user Xvnc..... 2>&1

launch_desktop_apps has a "pause 8" giving 8 seconds
before the apps are launched.  The apps are just your
basic xterm &, xclock &, xosview &, and twm &

the problem is the backgrounded bash script, launch_desktop_apps and its
children get killed within a few seconds.  So logging in gives you an
empty desktop.
