I'm looking for a good vnc client. I had some problems with RealVNC (mostly unexpectedly and randomly losing its connection), and am now looking into TightVNC. Does anyone have any personal preferences?

Sorry for not seeing this post earlier, but...

TightVNC is just as it says, TIGHT. I use it on my *nix machines. I still use RealVNC on my Windows machines, because the User client accepts incoming connections, allowing me to have user-initated sessions that work across their firewalls :cool: I didn't see that option in TightVNC, though I didn't look very hard. Other than that, TightVNC works really well-- I've never had any reliability issues with it (never had any with RealVNC either, but obviously YMMV).
