Add a note about NX protocol.

1: # NetBSD RDP/VNC survey 2: This page aims to provide a complete list of VNC/RDP implementations which can likely be ported to NetBSD. 3: As a further goal, documentation will be added on how to install and configure the particular implementations. 4: 5: ## Client implementations 6: 7: <table width="100%"> 8: <tr> 9: <td>Name</td> 10: <td>License</td> 11: <td>Protocol</td> 12: <td>pkgsrc</td> 13: <td>Linux</td> 14: <td>FreeBSD port</td> 15: </tr> 16: <tr> 17: <td>Remmina</td> 18: <td>?</td> 19: <td>VNC, RDP, NX<sup>3</sup>, XDMCP</td> 20: <td>?</td> 21: <td>?</td> 22: <td>?</td> 23: </tr> 24: <tr> 25: <td>EchoVNC</td> 26: <td>GPL</td> 27: <td>VNC, RDP, RAdmin<sup>1</sup></td> 28: <td>no</td> 29: <td>yes<sup>1</sup></td> 30: <td>no</td> 31: </tr> 32: <tr> 33: <td>KRDC</td> 34: <td>GPL</td> 35: <td>RDP, VNC</td> 36: <td>no</td> 37: <td>yes</td> 38: <td>no</td> 39: </tr> 40: <tr> 41: <td>RealVNC</td> 42: <td>GPL</td> 43: <td>VNC</td> 44: <td>yes</td> 45: <td>yes</td> 46: <td>no</td> 47: </tr> 48: <tr> 49: <td>TightVNC</td> 50: <td>GPL</td> 51: <td>VNC</td> 52: <td>yes</td> 53: <td>?</td> 54: <td>?</td> 55: </tr> 56: <tr> 57: <td>rdesktop</td> 58: <td>GPL</td> 59: <td>RDP 5</td> 60: <td>yes</td> 61: <td>yes</td> 62: <td>yes</td> 63: </tr> 64: <tr> 65: <td>FreeRDP<sup>2</sup></td> 66: <td>GPL</td> 67: <td>RDP 5</td> 68: <td>no</td> 69: <td>yes</td> 70: <td>yes</td> 71: </tr> 72: <tr> 73: <td>QtNX<sup>3</sup></td> 74: <td>GPL</td> 75: <td>NX</td> 76: <td>no</td> 77: <td>yes</td> 78: <td>no</td> 79: </tr> 80: </table> 81: 82: ## Server Implementations 83: 84: <table width="100%"> 85: <tr> 86: <td>Name</td> 87: <td>License</td> 88: <td>Protocol</td> 89: <td>pkgsrc</td> 90: <td>Linux</td> 91: <td>FreeBSD port</td> 92: </tr> 93: <tr> 94: <td>x11vnc</td> 95: <td>GPLv2</td> 96: <td>VNC</td> 97: <td>yes</td> 98: <td>yes</td> 99: <td>yes</td> 100: </tr> 101: <tr> 102: <td>xrdp</td> 103: <td>GPL</td> 104: <td>RDP</td> 105: <td>wip</td> 106: <td>yes</td> 107: <td>yes</td> 108: </tr> 109: <tr> 110: <td>FreeNX<sup>3</sup></td> 111: <td>GPLv2</td> 112: <td>NX</td> 113: <td>no</td> 114: <td>yes</td> 115: <td>yes</td> 116: </tr> 117: </table> 118: 119: <sup>1</sup> Unreliable source (i.e. only Wikipedia). 120: 121: <sup>2</sup> FreeRDP is a fork of rdesktop. 122: 123: <sup>3</sup> NX protocol may be ignored completely since 124: there's not going to be available open-source implementation any time soon. 125: 126: ## References 127: 128: 1. <http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Comparison_of_remote_desktop_software> 129: 1.
