VNC Viewer

Hi everyone,
I was wondering if anyone has ever tried remotely viewing a Mac os X desktop from a Linux? i.e Using the Linux as a client and the mac as the server.If you could give pointers on to how and any free software available to do this it would be appreciated.
Many thanks

Vine Server (VNC server for Mac OS X) is what you need.

Kind of a late response, but Krdc works great. It also allows you to connect to Windows remote desktop servers.

I think you need ultravnc, it is a powerful, easy to use and free software that can display the screen of another computer (via internet or network) on your own screen. The program allows you to use your mouse and keyboard to control the other pc remotely.
