Fedora has 2 options to share it's screen with Macs or PCs...
freenx or VNC
The client applications for freenx are available from
http://www.nomachine.org and the client applications for VNC are
available from http://www.realvnc.com/products/download.html (the Mac
version is called something like Chicken of the VNC).
installation of freenx is something like 'yum install freenx-server' and
the generally vnc server application is automatically installed ('yum
install vncviewer' for the client).
Instructions on configuration of freenx-server and vnc server are
available via google.
