Personally, I am blown away by the performance of Tiger VNC - so much so that I no longer use either NX nor FreeNX. I don't get sounds - but youtube runs very smoothly...
Of course, I've not been able to resize a running desktop like I have with the **NX's - but since the performance has been so good - I don't care :)

Hi,

says: NX and FreeNX are only available for Centos 4 and 5
Alternative?
I stopped using freenx when I found xrdp. yum install xrdp will do it. I find it much easier to setup and maintain.
here is what the rpm says:
Name : xrdp Arch : x86_64 Version : 0.5.0 Release : 0.13.el6 Size : 240 k Repo : epel Summary : Open source remote desktop protocol (RDP) server URL : http://xrdp.sourceforge.net/ License : GPLv2+ with exceptions Description: The goal of this project is to provide a fully functional Linux terminal : server, capable of accepting connections from rdesktop and Microsoft's own : terminal server / remote desktop clients.
