TightVNC is a free remote control software package derived from the popular VNC software. With TightVNC, you can see the desktop of a remote machine and control it with your local mouse and keyboard, just like you would do it sitting in the front of that computer. TightVNC is:
- free, GPL-licensed, with full source code available
- useful in remote administration, remote customer support, education, and for many other purposes
- cross-platform, available for Windows and Unix, compatible with other VNC software
If you would like to learn more about TightVNC, consider reading this short introduction. Also, check the documentation pages where you will find answers to many important questions.
Note! Even though this is a solid and well tested product remember to pick a hard-to-guess password to avoid abuse. Otherwise others will gain complete control of your PC, and there’s enough bad guys out there just waiting for an opportunity like that…
