Unwanted Terminal Session in Gnome dektop

I have installed CentOS V 6.0 and am current on all updates. After configuring VNCSERVER for 3 additional accounts, I get 4 unwanted auto spawned terminal session in the GNOME desktop. I am at a loss on how to research this. I have .vnc xstartups that look like this:

******************************** Begin xstartup *******************************************************

#!/bin/sh

vncconfig -iconic &
unset SESSION_MANAGER
unset DBUS_SESSION_BUS_ADDRESS
OS=`uname -s`
if [ $OS = 'Linux' ]; then
  case "$WINDOWMANAGER" in
    *gnome*)
      if [ -e /etc/SuSE-release ]; then
        PATH=$PATH:/opt/gnome/bin
        export PATH
      fi
      ;;
  esac
fi
if [ -x /etc/X11/xinit/xinitrc ]; then
  exec /etc/X11/xinit/xinitrc
fi
if [ -f /etc/X11/xinit/xinitrc ]; then
  exec sh /etc/X11/xinit/xinitrc
fi
[ -r $HOME/.Xresources ] && xrdb $HOME/.Xresources
"xstartup" [readonly] 26L, 575C                               1,1           Top

********************************* End xstartup ***********************************************************************

Welcome to the CentOS fora. Please see the recommended reading for new users linked in my signature.

For a start get rid of the two /etc/X11/xinit/xinitrc sections and see what is in $HOME/.Xresources

I had the same problem when moving to CentOS 6.

The /etc/X11/xinit/xinitrc sections seem fine. The issue had to do with the all of the autostart files tied in to Gnome. These can be globally modified in here: /etc/xdg/autostart/*. They can be individually and globally disabled by default for Gnome by adding this line at the end of each config file:

X-GNOME-Autostart-enabled=false
