VNC VNC (Virtual Network Computing) is remote control software which allows you to view and interact with one computer (the "server") using a simple program (the "viewer") on another computer anywhere on the Internet. The two computers don't even have to be the same type, so for example you can use it to view an office Linux machine on your Windows PC at home. It is freely and publicly available and is in widespread active use by millions throughout industry, academia and privately.

Changes in Current Version: -A significant new feature automatically optimizes the choice of encoding and pixel format based on an estimate of line speed. In most cases now the viewer will adapt to slow and fast links without needing extra command-line options
-Another significant development is a new encoding for slow links, ZRLE. This offer comparable compression to tight encoding, but better in some cases and much simpler in concept and implementation. It is a combination of the run length encoding scheme with tiling, palettisation and ZLIB compressio
-HTTP server is more standards compliant
-Improved reliability under certain network conditions
-Mapping of the keypad "Enter" key fixed
