[K12OSN] VNCViewer and speed of refresh

[Doug Simpson]

However, when you use VNC with linux, you can'e leave a session and return 
to it later like you can with Windows.  You get a new session exery time 
with linux. Unless there is something you can tell me that will allow me 
to get into the same session as one already running. . .
