Do you use VNC as a means to get to the console in order to reboot the server? If yes, I don't think you need it. If you login to TS as an administrator, you have the right to reboot the server in session as well as in console.
OTOH, if yours is Win2003, you could even use TS to get to the console. Just use
in computer field. For this to work, you also need the newest TS client, whose name has been changed to "Remote Desktop Connection", a component in WinXP.
Hope this help.

The problem is that I don't have physical access to the server. This is the
only way I could get in to the server. What happens is that due to some
reason Terminal Services locks the connections and requires a reboot. Since
there is no monitor on that box, remote-hands has to go to the data center
and power cycle the box. I am trying to find an easy to reboot OR restart
the terminal services. rajeev

Wait a moment, it's even worse. It's not clear at all. What have
you done exactly?
It seems that starting VNC in a Terminal Service session isn't
working as expected. You'd better get in the front of the console and start
it there.

I logged in to the server through terminal services and started VNC.
I didn't want for long but there is no screen saver.

You don't have that because he thought your VNC server is installed
in WinXP, which is not your case. WinXP has a function called "fast user
switching" which isn't in Win2k.
When you say "blank screen", have you waited long enough? Do you
have this problem when your server machine is in screene saver mode or not?

I don't see any such option in VNC Server properties.
Please advice further

If you have fast user switching turned on, you will get a black
screen. You can still use the cute little graphical login screen if
you want, but you must have fast user switching off.
