Kdesktop - KRFB Re: [olug] looking for an application

[Brian Wiese]

Well, if you are running KDE 3.0 (should be builtin for KDE 3.1) you can
get the KDE Desktop sharing, originally called KRFB.  There is an article
on it in this month's (April 2003) Linux Journal p. 24, by Marcel Gagne of
course. =)

Basically, it seems like another VNC clone but with some neat features
(optionally take control of the remote X display, resize the desktop
window).  The article also mentiones the rdesktop package (on gnu/linux)
for connecting to remote WinNT/2k terminal servers.

peace
Brian
