So I have spent some time looking at the Tigervnc site and the RedHat
documentation and now I am confused.

When you connect to the VNC Server you don't login with your username
and password, do you?  You actually use some special VNC password,
right?  So the VNC server is already running, as your user, right and
the password is just fo allow the connection?

If so, that is probably key because that means that you are not
running PAM.

If the above is true what happens if you do not have the VNC server
start automagically, and rather set it up so you login via ssh and
start it manually?  If you do that, since ssh obeys limits then
processes started from an ssh session should obey as well and then
your VNC session should have the right limits.
