VNC Client

OK,  I found the client.  Many versions and sources not really sure
which one to use.  The problem now is how to get the fedora firewall to
allow port 5900 through.  During the install there was an opportunity to
add ports.  Does anyone know how to bring this GUI back up or is there
another?

Thanks,

R
