I'm not sure that you can compile tightvnc under cygwin. I have been using TigthVNC for windows, but it would be more integrated if I can use the tightvnc client (vncviewer) because you can't pass some parameters (like the password) in the vnc client for Window and I don't want any graphical interface, just to execute from other machine the vncclient/vncserver. Is there any tightvnc package or anybody compiled the tightvnc for Windows under cygwin?
