TridiaVNC 1.5 (32-bit Windows)/1.4 (Unix/Linux)
If you need remote control in a pinch, TridiaVNC is one place to go. It's a free download and it does the job. But don't be fooled: Although it provides encryption for passwords, it lacks encryption for the data stream.
It also came in last, by a long shot, in our bitmap transfers. And if you're looking to transfer files, the free version won't do. You'll have to upgrade to the Pro version for $49 per user. For 1,000 users, that will come close to Funk Proxy's price tag.
AT&T Research Laboratories developed VNC (Virtual Network Computing) as an open-source software product under the GNU Public License. This means that you can obtain the source code and modify it to suit your needs. Tridia charges you a little bit extra for its packaged version, documentation and support, but VNC is freely available elsewhere on the Web (see www.sourceforge.net).
