bVNC is a secure, open source VNC client. Its features include:
- External keyboard support
- External mouse support
- Magic Trackpad support
- Multi-language support
- Supports Mac OS X built-in remote desktop server (ARD) and Mac OS X authentication!
- Windows, Mac, Linux, BSD, or any other OS with a VNC server installed
- Scrolling with a two-finger gesture
- Dynamic resolution changes, allowing you to reconfigure your desktop while connected, and control over virtual machines from BIOS to OS
- SSH tunneling, AnonTLS and VeNCrypt for secure connections (does not support RealVNC encryption).
- High-grade encryption superior to RDP using SSH and VeNCrypt (x509 certificates and SSL), preventing man-in-the-middle attacks
- Tight and CopyRect encodings for quick updates
- SSH public/private (pubkey)- Supports most VNC servers including TightVNC, UltraVNC, TigerVNC, (and RealVNC Enterprise only, when configured appropriately)
- Does NOT support RealVNC's proprietary encryption (use VNC over SSH or VeNCrypt instead)
- Clipboard integration for copy/pasting from your device
Some of the planned features to look forward to:
- AutoX session discovery/creation similar to NX client
- Ability to reduce the color depth over slow links
- Importing encrypted/unencrypted RSA keys in PEM format
- View-only mode
- On-device help on available input modes in the Menu when connected
