We are using the Redstone Server (in conjunction with the SharedDesktop) and have had great results
with it. No disconnects from multiple windows/linux clients for over an hour etc.
For clients, I've used VNCThing, Chicken of the VNC and VNCViewer - all very successfully (again
connecting to servers for extended (hours) periods of time.
