A good rdp like program already exsists, either freeNX or noMachines's free NX work great, and I use them all the time to connect to several of my linux computers from bith linux and windows machines. However, VNC canserves a similar but different purpose, VNC allows you to loginto an exsisting x session and view / control that session. Both RDP and NX start new sessions. Often times I need to get access to a session that is already running and perhaps is use by someone else either to show them something or to have them show me something on their screen
