Virtual Network Computing

VNC is supported on Windows, Linux, and Mac operating systems. VNC was originally developed by AT&T but is today widely available as open source software. There are a few freely available VNC servers that can be downloaded and installed on most operating systems. An authorized user could use VNC HTML5 bookmark to access the Remote VNC server.
