How to: Connect to your Mac Remotely through VNC
How to, Mac OS X - February 12th, 2007 - 6 Comments
If you have a Mac and broadband, you should be using Apple’s Remote Desktop (a bit of lipstick on the VNC pig with that name). Setting up a VNC server enables you to connect to your home or office Mac from any computer running a VNC client, meaning you can access and use your Mac’s desktop from Windows, Linux, or even another Mac. Iniblog has a nice post directing people on how to set this up, and the only other thing you’ll need to get is a VNC client, such as Chicken of the VNC (free). Check it out!
TightVNC is harder to set up (is it still part of fink unstable?) but significantly faster, in my experience!
Thanks for posting my blog here! I got over a 100 hits from this!
