TigerVNC

TigerVNC: A robust application that lets you create a VNC connection fast and easy

TigerVNC is an open source tool that includes client and server components so you can establish Virtual Network Computing connections between multiple computers that are part of the same network. This is a simple solution for interacting with software installed on remote machines.

Once you launch the TigerVNC server, a related icon will be displayed in the system tray. From there you can disconnect from existing clients and connect to new ones, access the application’s Control Panel or enable full control takeover.

Updating can be stopped and optionally you can block the use of new clients. There’s also a list in the Control Panel where you can see details related to the IP address, current status and connection time of the remote machine.

Also, the application supports a number of video encoding types, specifically RAW, ZRLE, Tight and Hexztile with the possibility to select from 8, 64, 256 and full color levels. Users can also define the compression level and use JPEG compression for an even greater level of control.
