How do you run tightvnc server on RHEL so that it matches your gui screen?
I am running vncserver, which I got to run, but I was hoping the interface on Bill's box, would be identical to the one on my linux box. Instead I get this convoluted interface which is pretty tough to use. Is there a way that I can get my tightvnc to look and work exactly as if I have my monitor hook up on my linux box?

Your default GUI session is on display:0, so I guess if you start the tightVNC server on the same display it should do the trick.
So :
Code:vncserver -display :0
