How to restart "Vino" via command line? RedHat

Hi,
Quick question, I cant find a straight answer anywhere...
I have a RedHat5 server running, "Vino" sometimes hangs and I cant VNC to it, I have SSH and restart the actual server to get this working again.. I have not found the way to restart the vnc variant (vino to remote desktop) built in in Redhat... is any way to do that?? Vino does not appear as a 'service' so I cant just restart it that way..
I this point I cant install VNC software (tightvnc, realvnc, etc) so I have to keep it as is.

Any suggestions would be very much appreciated. thanks!

EDIT:
Found it!!

SSH to the server and type the following 2 commands:
# export DISPLAY=:0.0
# /usr/libexec/vino-server &

that's it! now I can vnc to it.
