Adding VNC to your Audrey

What is VNC?

VNC stands for Virtual Network Computing. It is, in essence, a remote display system which allows you to view a computing 'desktop' environment not only on the machine where it is running, but from anywhere on the Internet and from a wide variety of machine architectures.

The latest versions of VNC and this documentation are always available from the AT&T Labs Cambridge web site at http://www.uk.research.att.com/vnc.
