I was wondering what everyone uses as a VNC viewer. I have been looking for one, but I have not found one that I really like that works well with tiger. Can one help! Thanks!!
adese said:restone's vnc* is not too shabby, some of the features I like are that:
-you can config a startup server
-you can make it so you have to tunnel through with ssh to get access
-if it crashes it will restart itself
also best of all, it comes as a universal binary!
I haven't used chicken of the vnc, I'll check it

That's 'just" the open source OSXVnc server from sourceforge. I'm not arguing that it's a bad product but it's a VNC server and the OP wanted a viewer. I concur with Chicken of the VNC for a viewer.adese said:restone's vnc* is not too shabby, some of the features I like are that:

Apple has a very good VNC Client and Server directly integrated into OS X. The Viewer can be found on this path: /System/Library/CoreServices/Screen\ Sharing.app. You can enable the server in Sharing Preferences Pane, either on Screen Sharing or Remote Management.
But if you want an easy way to access your buddys desktop, then I would suggest http://www.teamviewer.com/.

RealVNC Viewer is free and it works like a charm for me and my Windows Server 2008 server:

Woops, just saw your edit.
Does anyone use a VNC viewer from outside the local network? I want to be able to access my home computer using my iPad and 3G.
It looks like I can use Real VNC Enterprise edition, but thats $50 odd to buy.
Anyone know of other options?
Cheers
