Reverse VNC is easier

Why not use a reverse VNC connection instead? It is faster and easier. A turorial can be found at: http://tinyapps.org/vnc/

Reverse VNC is easier
Authored by: jdb8167 on Mar 03, '05 07:50:23PM

I humbly disagree that this is easier. First, I wanted to use ARD because I suspect that in the future it will be a standard install as part of OS X. Second, I really don't want any more forwarded ports from my router to my machine. I'd really rather work with 22 and be done with it. Third, having her run my little applescript app is the exact same amount of trouble as her running OSXvnc but no configuration at all on her part. Just a password that I've bypassed by giving her an authorized key.
