how can I remote desktop to a fedora machine on my network?

–from an xp box
look up vnc and xvnc
also tightvnc
all VNC

any of them free?
yes
all of them
o
ok, it would appear i need xfree86

how can i install that remotely?
er..
you said "remote desktop" .. ?
if you dont have xfree86/xorg .. you dont have a desktop
well..
i have a desktop..

but when i try to install tightvnc with the rpm on my linux machine, it says it needs xfree86 to install
do you have Xorg installed?
if fedora core 5 installed it i do
you can choose to have a purely terminal based install .. or not
i didn't do a terminal based install
i had the gui up and running
it works

ah ok .. GUI = Xorg ..
xfree86 was split and Xorg is now whats there ..
try: yum install tightvnc
No Match for argument: tightvnc
:(
try: yum search xvnc

sleep required ..
:)
good luck
thanks
