I am running tightvnc as a server on FreeBSD where I vnc into it from my windows machine. Again, using Tightvnc.

When reviewing the Tightvnc's web site, I noticed NO mention of Linux. But further googling to forums, I find Tightvnc being used as a server on Linux also.

So again, my question. Why 2 applications. I use right now tightvnc on my FreeBSD box as the server and tightvnc on my windows machines.

To be truthful, I am currently typing this post through the vnc. Tightvnc running both
on the windows machine AND the Unix machine.
