[rescue] My new UltraSparc 5's, also my first Sun stations

[Brian Howe]

There are several iterations of vnc available... my personal choice is
tightvnc.

If you are running X on one box (say from NetBSD or OpenBSD), you can
use Xnest to get your display from the Solaris box in a window on your
BSD box - 'Xnest -query <IP> :1' or something like that. I get my U1
to display it's desktop that way to save my meatspace desktop real
estate.
