vnc
For ages I have used Chicken but High Sierra warns me of it being a 32bit app. macports has cotvnc and also vnc Any opinions sage words or other Thanks James PS Chicken means ‘Chicken of the VNC’ and cotvnc is a port of it. I assume one can build it in 64bit mode

You can launch it by opening a vnc:// URL from Finder's "Connect to Server" dialog or with open(1) from a terminal window, for example: open vnc://hostname:5190 Hope that helps, Rainer PS: Please use the new @lists.macports.org addresses as we are no longer on macOS Forge.

One of my linux boxes running xvnc Chicken DOES connect James
Re: vnc
What exactly is your question ? The macPorts build of cotvnc is 64-bit and no warnings are offered running it. Presumably you get the warnings running some other build ? If you like this app just bin the one you are using and install the MacPorts one.

I use cotvnc all the time and I've seen no problems with it on High Sierra so far. Actually I use the cotvnc-devel port, to get the latest development version.
