Re: [OT]ish Good remote desktop viewing s/w?

[David Yeend <david.yeend@xxxxxxxxx>]

The version of VNC I use now and then allows a view only password and an
allow control password - a java plugin that works in a browser window.

I personally find the screen update on VNC a pain - for example the log
display of Homeseer can update but the VNC client does not re-fresh until
you scroll or move a window.

I guess that does not really help you much!
