I use TightVNC on my Centos systems, and particularly with my HIP
testing (using the HIPL code). So I since my plans for HIP include FC10
(to get the 2.6.27 kernel with the IPsec BEET patches), I need TightVNC.
What better way than instead of taking the old 1.3.9 code from RHEL5,
to use the new 1.5.0 from the FC11 development.
So I am trying to do the retrofit. Any one more skilled than me (and
there are LOTS that fit that catagory), I would welcome the help. And
maybe to get TightVNC as a standard part of FC10.
