VNC and X problems

[Matthew Botos <mlb27_(_at_)_cornell_(_dot_)_edu>]

I compiled the VNC sources last night but haven't been able to get
vncserver to run properly.  It seems to be stuck trying to do "xrdb
~/.Xresources", which isn't there, or anywhere else on my system.  These
are the errors from the log:

_X11TransSocketINETConnect: Can't get address for goose
xrdb: Invalid argument
xrdb: Can't open display 'goose:1'
_X11TransSocketINETConnect: Can't get address for goose
xsetroot:  unable to open display 'goose:1'
_X11TransSocketINETConnect: Can't get address for goose
twm:  unable to open display "goose:1"
_X11TransSocketINETConnect: Can't get address for goose
xterm Xt error: Can't open display: goose:1
