VNC consists of two components, a server and a viewer. The server
generates the display and the viewer draws the display. One can view a
remote server using one of two methods:
1) Via a web browser that supports Java™, you can open a URL
to http://machinename:5800 which is the default port (it can
be set to any port) on which the remote control server runs.
2) There is a version for Windows®, Linux®, Solaris 7,
Solaris 9 and HP-UX 11/11i. There are also builds contributed by others
that can be found by using popular search engines. |
