I an also new to ubuntu, but in the past I have looked at VNC and found it a
bit cumbersome. Since then I have started using the combination of
freenx/nomachine, bothe available from www.nomachine.com. This is an
excellent tool for managing multiple linux systems from a single desktop. It
even has a client for windoze, though I have not got this working yet. Using
the combination on ubuntu, FC4 and opensuse10 with no problems.
