It's perfectly valid list fodder (I think it's on the RedHat
powertools CD). It's also very cool (just like he said) but you'll
need enough memory on the target machine (running the vnc server)
and a fast display helps on the client machine. The fancier window
managers are quite a bit slower than the more minimalist ones.
You can also do it the other way round (vnc server on the windows
box) but it's goofy as all hell (try opening a DOS prompt). Linux
to linux works great. The new URL is:
