>(aside from the crashes you mention?)
7? months ago I tried all the Mac VNC servers out; tested them with
the Mac, Windows clients and the Newton VNC client.
Long story short, I didn't find any Mac VNC servers that worked worth
a darn. I could only test OS 9 applications.
Maybe they've been updated in that time, but my suggestion if you are
really interested in the idea, test them heavily using a known stable
client (like a decent Windows client) and make your conclusion there
before trying the Newton client out (a desktop client will be much
much faster, and you can see how flakey the Mac VNC server might be,
pretty quickly).
