tightvcn - how to view the desktop screen?

Using tc2.0rc21
Please remind me how to view a remote tc desktop screen using tightvcn.

I have the tightvcn extension loaded and am using tightvcn viewer on a windows machine.
I started the server using "Xvnc :1".

I connect the viewer using 192.168.0.120::5901 and see a blank screen.

I don't know what "To start some apps on screen 1, such as JWM:
DISPLAY=:1.0 jwm" means. In tc2.0rc21 I suppose FLWM must be used.

Edit: Also Tried "Xvnc :DISPLAY=:1.0 flwm" - no joy.

Start the applications in another console :)

Or background the Xvnc server, if you wish to use the same console.

I'm trying to start Xvnc via ssh. As you can see below flwm is not recognized.

--- Code: ---tc@box:/usr/local/bin$ Xvnc :DISPLAY=:1.0 flwm
Unrecognized option: flwm
use: X [:<display>] [option]
-a #                   mouse acceleration (pixels)
-ac                    disable access control restrictions
-audit int             set audit trail level
-auth file             select authorization file
bc                     enable bug compatibility
-bs                    disable any backing store support
-c                     turns off key-click
