Yes, you should set RFB_ENABLED=1 and add '-ac' to X_OPTIONS.
Check startx.tpl:
                ...
                # FIXME
                # this is going to fail because has no auth
                # you can add -ac to X
                [ "${RFB_ENABLED}" -eq 1 ] && \
                        (sleep 5; run_rfb ) &
