vncserver not working for me in latest solaris 10 on sparc

Hello,

This is Solaris 10 running on <142909-17> sun4u sparc SUNW,Sun-Fire-V440

When I(non root user) run vncserver, I get below message,

New 'servername:1 (nonrootuser)' desktop is servername:1

Starting applications specified in /home/nonrootuser/.vnc/xstartup
Log file is /home/nonrootuser/.vnc/servername:1.log

which looks good, isn't it! But then I can't connect to :1 so I run another 'vncserver' command , but to my surprise I get same o/p message as above?? And this continues to be like that no matter how many times I run vncserver. (displauy number always remains :1 and it doesn't work using vncviewer.
