Hi list
One of Google's SoC 2007 ideas by Ubuntu is

Remote accessibility

Ubuntu should have an easily installable and enable-able feature to
allow remote access to your desktop, files, and other resources over
the Internet. This could be accomplished via IPv6 when available,
dynamic DNS (i.e. dyndns.org) and UPnP when not. Ideally everything
would be ssh tunneled, with simple clients for Windows, Mac, and Linux
distributed on USB keys or CD-R's. The client could rely on public key
authentication and present options for VNC (or NX) remote control,
drive mapping, or other resource sharing once connected. When
appropriate, it should also allow read-only anonymous access if the
owner has enabled it (for websites and shared calendars, for example).

Any thoughts on how we could implement a Simple, Bare Bone Remote
access software?
