The short:

edit /etc/xinetd.d/vnc
Copy add new section for size you want.  

something like this:
# default: off
# description: This serves out a VNC connection which starts at a KDM login \
#       prompt. This VNC connection has a resolution of 1600x1200, 16bit depth.
service vnc4 <----  change name
{
        type            = UNLISTED
        port            = 5904 <------  change port
        socket_type     = stream
        protocol        = tcp
        wait            = no
        user            = nobody
        server          = /usr/bin/Xvnc
        server_args     = -SecurityTypes None -inetd -once -query localhost -geometry 
1600x1200 -depth 16  <-----  change geometry
        disable         = yes <----  change disable to no
}


once done with vnc file, you need to reload xinetd with following command:

rcxinetd reload

Then you need to open your firewall...

and you can connect to ip:4 (where 4 is the portno you used  -5900)
