Felix,
You're using a very old release of VNC, which would explain why you see poor
performance over extremely slow networks.
VNC doesn't "stream raw bitmap data" (unless you explicitly configure it
to...), and your assumption that an X11-based protocol will always be faster
is not valid.

This is similar to a problem I've seen mentioned on the list, but I haven't
seen an answer posted yet that works for me.
I'm using the RealVNC Free edition.
My computer (A) can connect as a viewer to computer B (a desktop running XP
Pro) and to my laptop (running XP Home).

I used to compile VNC against libwrap.a to use Wietse Venema's tcp

If not, I could just use ordinary Real VNC compiled with libwrap.a, block

To the best of my knowledge, both of the VNC-based projects you refer to are
based on the (very) old VNC 3.3 system, not on the current VNC 4.x series.

Felix,
64Kbps is a pretty slow connection. However, as I stated earlier, it
depends *heavily* upon what you're actually doing as to which will be
faster, and on whether you're using properly configured and up-to-date
versions of the software...

Most of the time we're working with Office type applications on 1280x1024

What do you mean
Felix,
Are you sure you have used a properly-configured, up-to-date VNC
installation? There's no reason why VNC couldn't match or beat NX on all
but the most low-bandwidth connections, for most common applications.

That depends very heavily on exactly how you're using VNC. For some
applications and in some configurations, NX may be faster, for others, VNC

freeNX is just one implementation of an NX server. The technology is
simply called NX. Wheter it's bet
- They can be mixed and matched.
- after years of using vnc I've now installed NxMachine on
all remote servers.
Jerry
P.S. I leave VNC connections definitions for now. As NxMachine
sometimes hangs. And It also requires periodic operator support
(ie. nxserver --terminate of hung sessions).
Dear all
Has anyone got any comments to offer on whether (Real)VNC or freeNX is
better for accessing a Linux machine from a Windows computer? Is freeNX
really faster, as often claimed out there? Can they be
mixed-and-matched?
Thanks

Jorge,
I can understand your wanting to discourage misuse of licensed software, but
I am unclear as to how that relates to which edition of VNC to use, since
they're all licensed...
