While having a close look at the XFree 4 version, the next idea started
boiling:

Is it possible to write a vnc-module for XFree that basically does what the
winvnc does on M$Windows?

- Transfer changed areas in the displayed video memory
- Transfer the mouse and keyboard events

>From the vnc side, the hard part it getting the hooks inside XFree. However,
since the source is free, it must be possible.

I don't see a need for the webserver interface, since most unices include a
much better webserver which can serve the proper pages.

Who takes the challenge?
