VNC remote desktop client software by RealVNC. Thanks for packaging this! After looking at RealVNC's website and this repo's PKGBUILD, I'm still not sure this VNC viewer is open source. Licensing Terms. There are two licensing options available for TightVNC software:. GNU General Public License version 2 (often abbreviated as GNU GPL). This is the default licensing option. It's completely free but it does not allow integration with closed-source products. Read the complete text of the license here (opens in a new window). VNC Viewer 4 can therefore be configure to only ever use the original VNC protocol version 3.3, ensuring compatibility even with non-standard VNC Servers. Note that this option may be set as a Default Option, or when making a new connection, but cannot be changed once a connection is active. Start a web server and emulate serving the Viewer app over the Internet. If evaluators will use Firefox, Safari, IE or MS Edge, and python 2.7+ is installed on the web server, the simplest thing to do is to run the built-in python HTTP server.
