Issue:
I have xhosts problems with VNC and need to set 'xhost +' when my system boots. How do I make 'xhost +' set at boot time?
Resolution:
You can not add an 'xhost +' line at the end of the /etc/rc.local file. You will have to modify the ${HOME}/.vnc/xstartup where ${HOME} is the path to the user's home directory. You can add the "xhost +" line like this: 

 
   #!/bin/sh
   # Red Hat Linux VNC session startup script
   #exec /etc/X11/xinit/xinitrc
   xrdb $HOME/.Xresources
   xsetroot -solid grey
   xterm -geometry 80x24+10+10 -ls -title "$VNCDESKTOP Desktop" &
   xhost +
