The basics are that you start a vncserver under the user where you want to run programs: this is a normal user, not root, etc. Then you start a vnc client on your local machine and use it to logon to the vncserver. The client can be a native client for your local machine or an applet that runs in your web browser I've used both under XP and both worked well. My personal notes say: "vncserver is run in user space. By default it talks to its own vncviewer on the remote system on port 5901. An http connection to port 5801 will cause it to download a Java applet that provides a remote desktop via a web browser. It is possible to share a single VNC server between users with xinetd [but starting vncserver under the target user account is more straight forward]. man Xvnc gives more details." Full documentation, software, etc is available here: http://www.realvnc.com Note that its only the Enterprise edition that must be bought - personal downloads and the Java applet are free downloads.
