VNC client

I wonder what vnc client do you use if you use pharo + RFB? I had a running via macports. Now that I'm about to switch to homebrew I have problems finding a working one. Be it in brew or app store, etc.

thanks,

Norbert

Re: VNC client

Chicken of the VNC and JollysFastVNC (currently testing the second because the first has problems with transmitting all charaters. JollysFastVNC has an option to toggle between remote and local mode to change character sets which is pretty cool. no more switching languages :) )

BTW: Chicken of the VNC has been discontinued. There's a project called "Chicken" based on it though (have been meaning to test it but haven't yet): http://sourceforge.net/projects/chicken/?source=directory

Cheers,

Max

Tried jolly before opening this thread. It didn't work at all.

Ok, I'll check. discontinued could be good because RFB is also some sort of "not continued" :)

Norbert,

there is a free VNC client coming with every Mac OS X. It's hidden in the folder /System/Library/CoreServices.
The name is "Screen Sharing.app" (or with German localisation: "Bildschirmfreigabe").
Nowadays I am using Remote Desktop application (64€ in AppStore).
I don't know whether it's working with RFB, though.

Regards,
Andreas

Nope, it isn't working. That was the first one I tried.

Jan,

I tried chicken of the vnc and basically it works. The "chicken" version (is newer) that is based on chicken of the vnc does not work. I use Mac as client to connect to a linux server machine (well it's pharo). Do you have a different setup? However how do you map the keys? I cannot use alt, cmd, etc.

Re: VNC client

Hi Norbert,

I have the same setup. But I must confess that I use the VNC client as little as possible, only for troubleshooting. If I have to do real work I copy the image to my local development laptop. So I don't really know if the key mapping works. I will test this tonight.

Jan.
