This me ans that you can easily have a secure remote display without using VNC by tunneling through ssh using ‘ssh -X’. None the les s, if for some reason you would still like to use VNC, this page describes the process for getting it to work. text/html 2009-09-28T11:16:42-05:00 http://www.cs.vassar.edu/sysnews/vnc/osx?rev=1254151002 Setup Download and install a secure shell client As you may have heard, the Mac OS X operating system is built off of a version of Unix, FreeBSD. You’ll be happy to hear that this means you already have a secure shell client installed, the Unix native ssh. You will find it from the Terminal - more on that later. text/html 2007-12-12T20:09:21-05:00 http://www.cs.vassar.edu/sysnews/vnc/resolution?rev=1197508161 Depeding on your VNC use, you may want to have a larger or smaller display than the default or a different number of colors. This often happens if you want to run the display full-screen or want to speed things up by reducing the amount of information moving over your network connection by choosing a smaller color set or resolution. Our VNC server allows you to choose a resolution and color depth by connecting to different ports. The instructions suggest you connect to port 5995, which correspon… text/html 2007-12-18T21:45:36-05:00 http://www.cs.vassar.edu/sysnews/vnc/tabs?rev=1198032336 Introduction To VNC Linux Mac osX Using VNC on Windows VNC Client Display Resolution text/html 2009-08-29T10:33:04-05:00 http://www.cs.vassar.edu/sysnews/vnc/top?rev=1251556384 What is VNC? VNC is a system for interacting with a computer display remotely, over a network. This technology was developed by AT&T Laboratories, and is now available for free over the internet (distributed under the GNU General Public License. Visit the RealVNC website for more information or follow the links below for information about the easiest way to use VNC on your computer. text/html 2009-11-17T12:00:17-05:00 http://www.cs.vassar.edu/sysnews/vnc/windows?rev=1258477217 Setup Setting up the programs to connect to a VNC server is not too difficult. You will, however, need to download two programs: a SSH client and a VNC client. The SSH client will make a secure connection between your computer and the VNC server and the VNC client will use this connection to draw a display on your screen.
