I downloaded the RPMs from nomachine.com because I had not found that they are built in one of the repos (testing if memory serves).
I second the recommendation for NX, especially if you want a full desktop.There is a better version of NX in the upcoming 5.2 release in the extras repo.
The major difference between nx/freenx and vnc is that NX is compressed, so the desktop is pretty much like running it on the machine, where vnc (and normal X forwarding via ssh) are much slower. I use a remote NX desktop all the time, and it really is just like being on the machine.
