RHEL 8 not allowing to login via VNC

[OK]

Hi

Set up TigerVNC by Red Hat guide

https://access.redhat.com/documentation/en-us/red_hat_enterprise_linux/8/html/using_the_desktop_environment_in_rhel_8/accessing-the-desktop-remotely_using-the-desktop-environment-in-rhel-8#remote-desktop-access-options_accessing-the-desktop-remotely

The problem is it logs me in with the user I set without ability to login as different user

What I want it to be able connect to VNC and then login with a user.

I'm afraid we don't have a good setup for that. We don't have any
central service in TigerVNC handling such multiplexing of users to the
correct session.

The closest thing we have at the moment is running Xvnc in inetd mode.
Your local display manager (e.g. GDM or LightDM) will then handle the
authentication and session creation.

Note that inetd mode doesn't allow disconnected sessions. So the session
will be killed once the user disconnects, and they'll get a new session
the next time they connect.

Unfortunately, I cannot find a good tutorial for this. There is some
information on the Xvnc man page:

A: Because it messes up the order in which people normally read text.
Q: Why is top-posting such a bad thing?

You can also run Xvnc from your display manager. this has the disadvantage  that you have to login twice when you start the session but does allow persistent sessions. see https://unix.stackexchange.com/questions/63216/how-to-configure-xorg-conf-for-widescreen-vnc-on-headless-linux-ubuntu/106448#106448 and https://raspberrypi.stackexchange.com/questions/11940/black-screen-with-x-cursor-when-running-vnc-on-boot/11943#11943 for examples.
