A little OT: VNCviewer recent_hosts does not work

[Leslie Jensen]

I'm using vnc-4.1.3_5 on FreeBSD 9.1-RELEASE with xfce4.

I have about 10 different hosts that I usually connect to.

I would like these hosts to be in a drop down menu so I just have to 
pick the one I need to connect to.

 From what I can read on-line the hosts should be saved to
$HOME/.vnc/recent_hosts

This file is not created by vncviewer and adding it manually has no effect.

I would like to know if it's possible and in that case how to achieve 
what I want.

Thank you.
