Another one for all the VNC mavens



-------------------ANNOUNCEMENT--------------------------
Announce: RDP to VNC

the wonders of open source brings you true
multi-user VNC access for NT4 Terminal Servers

http://www-lce.eng.cam.ac.uk/~tme23/vdesktop

it's fast. it's fantastic. it lets anyone with a
vnc client connect to terminal server.

rdp2vnc is basically a translating proxy between VNC
and RDP protocols. it's not 100% complete but plenty
usable.

some caveats:

 - NT4 only, no support for win2k
 - Raw, RRE, CopyRect only
 - no built in httpd
 - no authentication (authenticate by TS login)
 - no VNC session persistence (it persists in TS)
 - no shared session support
 - is linux (unix) hosted
---------------------------------------------------
This basically means you don't need Metaframe anymore,
we're talking $,$$$ of dollars.
