Virtual Network Computing (VNC) is a remote display system which allows you to view and interact with a virtual desktop environment that is running on another computer on the network. Using VNC, you can run graphical applications on a remote machine and send only the display from these applications to your local machine. VNC is platform-independent and supports a wide variety of operating systems and architectures as both servers and clients.
RabbitVNC is a high-speed version of VNC based on the TigerVNC and X.org code bases. RabbitVNC is a cross-platform libraries and programme. The programme see https://github.com/KangLin/RabbitRemoteControl

See the Acknowledgements section below, and the individual source files, for details of the conditions under which they are made available.
All versions of RabbitVNC contain the following programs:
-
RabbitVNC - the cross-platform RabbitVNC library.
-
RabbitRemoteControl: the programme use RabbitVNC.
-
vncviewer - the cross-platform RabbitVNC Viewer, written using FLTK. vncviewer connects to a VNC server and allows you to interact with the remote desktop being displayed by the VNC server. The VNC server can be running on a Windows or a Unix/Linux machine.
The Windows version of RabbitVNC contains the following programs:
- winvnc - the RabbitVNC Server for Windows. winvnc allows a Windows desktop to be accessed remotely using a VNC viewer.
WARNING: winvnc is currently unmaintained and and may not function correctly.
winvnc may not work if the Fast User Switching or Remote Desktop features are in use.
The Unix/Linux version of RabbitVNC contains the following programs:
-
Xvnc - the RabbitVNC Server for Unix. Xvnc is both a VNC server and an X server with a "virtual" framebuffer. You should normally use the vncserver service to start Xvnc.
-
vncpasswd - a program which allows you to change the VNC password used to access your VNC server sessions (assuming that VNC authentication is being used.) This command must be run to set a password before using VNC authentication with any of the servers or services.
-
vncconfig - a program which is used to configure and control a running instance of Xvnc.
-
x0vncserver - an inefficient VNC server which continuously polls any X display, allowing it to be controlled via VNC. It is intended mainly as a demonstration of a simple VNC server.
It also contains the following systemd service:
- vncserver@.service - a service to start a user session with Xvnc and one of the desktop environments available on the system.
