Look I appreciate any help I can get and the link above is
interesting. However the people posting in that interchange seem not
to know that there is a OS X compatible vnc-server called OSvnc (not
from apple) that does work with vncviewer. So you ask why not use that
server. Good question, I think we should.

So I assume there are no vnc client programs around that might be
compatible with Apple Remote Desktop. Such is life.
As I said there is a compatible client that works in OS X (and maybe
in Windows) called Chicken of the VNC. But no Linux version that I can
find.
