As part of my warm-up for a presentation on Amahi to the MHVLUG, I’m dropping’ some knowledge…and links to related Amahi apps.

VNC - Virtual Network Computing;  a graphical desktop sharing system that uses the RFB protocol to remotely control another computer. It transmits the keyboard and mouse events from one computer to another, relaying the graphical screen updates back in the other direction, over a network.  App:  VNC, WebVNC, NoVNC

FTP - File Transfer Protocol; a standard network protocol used to transfer files from one host to another host over a TCP-based network, such as the Internet. FTP is built on a client-server architecture and uses separate control and data connections between the client and server.  FTP users may authenticate themselves using a clear-text sign-in protocol but can connect anonymously if the server is configured to allow it. App:  net2ftp, vsftpd, proftpd, PHFTP
