RDEsktop/VNC questions

[James Hong]

use /usr/ports/net/tsclient too if you're on rdp more than vnc
GUI to rdesktop (still got some limitation than CLI)

Subject: RDEsktop/VNC questions

Quick question about interconnectivity.

You OSX users may be familiar with a very slick little utility called RDC
(Remote Desktop Connection).  Some of you other *BSDers may also be familiar
with one called VNC (Visual Network Connection ?) or RDP (?).
The purpose of said utilities is to provide a sort of graphical shell
similar to an X session from a remote machine in a window.

There are several rdesktop and vnc clients in the ports, so rather than go
through the flurry of install-tryout-uninstall/repeat, I figured I'd go to
the place to ask questions.  Here.

So, who's using these clients, and how effective have you been finding them?
Any gotchas?  How cool is it?  Do they just plain suck?  And more to the
point, which one(s) should I start with on the short list?

All feedback is welcome - and appreciated.
Lou
