   Thank you for this PR, that was fast! I tried pulling this branch and running it locally. The container builds fine now, but the VNC service never comes up. Poking around some more I found that the old `vnc` package used a really old version of TigerVNC. Newer versions use `systemd` instead of the `vncserver` script, and the container as it is right now errors out with:
   
   ```
   vncserver has been replaced by a systemd unit.
   Please read /usr/share/doc/tigervnc/HOWTO.md for more information.
   ```
   
   I've spent all morning on this without much luck. I can work around this for the time being using SOCKS. I'll keep poking at it to see if I find anything new, but if anyone else wants to give a shot at this PR, here's all the things I tried that don't work:
   - Revert to `tigervnc-server` v1.7.1 (package not in any CentOS repos, and manual RPM install was having odd dependency issues).
   - Install `systemd` packages into Docker container (requires a multi-step build process)
   - Use `centos/systemd` as base image (running into permission errors)
