vncserver and gnome desktop in RH 8


I was reading through this thread:

http://www.linuxquestions.org/questi...hreadid=210902


He mentioned editing /root/.vnc/xstartup and changing it so that the last line has this:

startkde # This will start KDE deskto i hope you use it


I'm running Red Hat 8, so I think I'm using the GNOME desktop. If that's the case, should I change that last line to startgnome or something like that?
