 I would also suggest VNC...

 It's in the ports so you can easily compile it there.

 The VNC site also has downloads for Windoze.

 This address from Defcon1 should have everything you need to get going:

http://www.defcon1.org/About_Us/News/Upcoming_Articles/CVS-Server/VNC-Server/vnc-server.html

 Be careful of the word wrapping..

 You could always just go to www.defcon1.org and then just click the link
for VNC at the bottom right.

 Enjoy!
