Interesting set of reviews, thanks for posting it!

But a caveat: VPNC is NOT a VNC server or client, VPNC is a Cisco client,
open source, not endorsed by Cisco. I've used it a LOT in days past,
before everybody seemingly standardized on Cisco's SSL client instead.
VPNC is intresting in that it runs entirely in userspace, so bugs
should be less prone to evilness.
