vncserver Problems


Hi.
I'm running freeBSD 6.2 amd64. I recently installed tightvnc-1.3.8 from ports and I'm receiving the following error when I attempt to start the server. I've seen other experience the same issue but my travels have not turned up a solution.:

Code:
Couldn't start Xvnc; trying default font path.
Please set correct fontPath in the vncserver script.
Couldn't start Xvnc process.
I edited the vncserver script and added the following font path

Code:
$fontPath =
"/usr/X11R6/lib/X11/fonts/misc/,/usr/X11R6/lib/X11/fonts/TTF/,/usr/X11R6/lib/X11/fonts/Type1/,/usr/X11R6/lib/X11/
fonts/75dpi/,/usr/X11R6/lib/X11/fonts/100dpi/";
I still receive the error.

Any help would be greatly appreciated.
