Remote controll


Hi,

Is there anything simular to VNC for Linux? I tried VNC for Linux but it did just start up a new fluxbox, I would like to get the controll as it is in Windows: if I connect and move the mouse the mouse is being moved on my screen at home.

Right now I can only connect to my home computer from the school via SSH but I would like to controll it graphicly as well (to check mail, msn, stuff like that).

Can this be done?

You can do that all in console:
Mail -> mutt
msn -> centericq



Anyways, the x11vnc does the thing you are looking for.
