Ubuntu VNC glory

I needed to have a friend pull my vnc client the other day, and in UltraVNC in Windows, you can just set the client on 'listen mode'. I didn't know how to do this in Linux, but the answer was easy:

vncviewer -listen 5500

And the server

The server was just as easy to set up:

x11vnc -forever -usepw -httpdir /usr/share/vnc-java/ -httpport 5800 -listen 192.168.1.103

Make sure and -usepw or you'll open your machine up to a world of trouble :)
