+x11vnc allows one to view remotely and interact with real X displays
+(i.e. a display corresponding to a physical monitor, keyboard, and mouse)
+with any VNC viewer. In this way it plays the role for Unix/X11 that
+WinVNC plays for Windows.
+
+It has built-in SSL encryption and authentication, UNIX account and
+password support, server-side scaling, single port HTTPS and VNC, mDNS
+service advertising, and TightVNC and UltraVNC file-transfer.
+
+It also provides an encrypted Terminal Services mode (-create, -svc, or
+-xdmsvc options) based on Unix usernames and Unix passwords where the
+user does not need to memorize his VNC display/port number. See also
+the tsvnc terminal services mode of the SSVNC viewer.
