Summary     : VNC support for guacd
Description :
Guacamole is an HTML5 web application that provides access to desktop
environments using remote desktop protocols such as VNC or RDP. A centralized
server acts as a tunnel and proxy, allowing access to multiple desktops through
a web browser. No plugins are needed: the client requires nothing more than a
web browser supporting HTML5 and AJAX.

libguac-client-vnc is a plugin for guacd which provides support for VNC via the
libvncclient library (part of libvncserver).
