your welcome.

a few VNC hints. KDE is picky about its resolution bit depth, so if KDE mysteriously complains and wont start, adjust the bit depth.
also In my experience not all VNC clients are the same. After various OS updates I have found that VNCdimension works noticably better/worse than VNCthing. I have no idea why but emprically it is so. VNC is not intrisically secure (just obscure) but can be made so by tunneling. (for paranoids, tell the server to turn off the http:5800 port.) At this time the reigning champian for VNC servers is tightVNC--however none of the mac-cleints support the tight protocol at this time (install it anyhow, since it just defaults to non-tight propocol, and someday soon the mac clients will support tightVNC)
