In this way it plays the role for Unix/X11 that +WinVNC plays for Windows. + +It has built-in SSL encryption and authentication, UNIX account and +password support, server-side scaling, single port HTTPS and VNC, mDNS +service advertising, and TightVNC and UltraVNC file-transfer. + +It also provides an encrypted Terminal Services mode (-create, -svc, or +-xdmsvc options) based on Unix usernames and Unix passwords where the +user does not need to memorize his VNC display/port number. See also +the tsvnc terminal services mode of the SSVNC viewer. |
