Remote Control

Introduction

---

There are many remote control software that allow you to control a PC over any TCP/IP connection (i.e. Internet). Except the Remote Desktop from Windows XP, VNC is yet another popular remote control software. There are many clones of VNC (an abbreviation for Virtual Network Computing), like the RealVNC and Ultr@UNC. Among them, Ultr@UNC is the most powerful. All VNC should be compatible with each other. Say one can use Ultr@VNC in the server side and RealVNC in the client side. Of course, only the common features are compatible.
