Vine Server For Mac

4. Vine Server

Vine Server, previously known as OSXvnc, is a free VNC server for Apple computer offered by TestPlant for free. You can use other VNC viewers to connect to the Vine server but using their shareware $35 Vine Viewer enables an additional feature which is transferring files via copy and paste.

Download Vine Server

Apr 06, 2012 Download the Vine Server installer to your Mac, open it, and copy the program to your hard drive. Run the Vine server. This will set up a VNC server accessible through port 5900. At this point, you could use VNC Viewer to connect to your Mac remotely. However, this would be an unencrypted connection.

It allows any VNC client to remotely view or control the machine. Vine Server requires no license key. Vine Viewer does require a key, but is provided here, free of charge: l4ip-wi87-ysc6-oj9. Vine Viewer has a wealth of uses: Helpdesk, education, remote system administration, telecommuting and family technical support, to name a few. And, Vine Viewer is a full Universal Binary For Improved Intel performance. Another unique application you may want to explore is its ability to support Multiple Desktop Sessions when used with Vine Server.

Mac OS X actually comes with a built-in remote management feature that allows other computers on the local network to access the Apple computer using the Apple Remote Desktop which we mentioned earlier. However, there is a setting where you can allow third party VNC viewers to connect and control the Apple computer. First click on the System Preferences icon at the Dock and click on Sharing. Click on the checkbox for the Remote Management to turn on the service.

Click on Computer Settings button. Tick on the 'VNC viewers may control screen with password' and type in a password. Click OK to save the changes. Optionally you can click on the Options button to configure the access permissions.

Do take note that the Remote Management feature in Mac OS X uses port 5900 which would conflict with the default port used by RealVNC server or Vine server if both service are enabled at the same time. You can either fix this by enabling only one service at a time or change the port usage on RealVNC or Vine server.

Logmein Free isn't completely free anymore. You can buy an account, and for IT people, you can buy Logmein Central, and then tie a couple of Logmein Pro pay-for machines to the account (easy). Then you are given logmein free subscriptions you can then tie into the account. If the remote access is going to give you an hourly rate or save you time (and time is money) then it is WORTH buying the annual subscription.
The thing that has always been an issue for me is Logmein wants to boast about their ability to stream the remote desktop as HD, and frankly that is just bells and whistles to me. That requires WAY more bandwidth, and is pointless in most cases. The GREAT thing about logmein, even over their join.me product, is you can cut back the color quality or even make it black and white. This SIGNIFICANTLY speeds up the remote session to make sure things work right. Join.me is a $100/yr subscription, to compete with their enterprise version rescue, but again the quality of the remote session is simply limiting and time wasting for the average IT guy who needs to help the user.
More to the point of Logmein Pro, you can actually perform secure file transfers, and monitor the system in a dashboard. The Dashboard for pro subscriptions ALSO gives you things like the top fifteen running processes, all scheduled tasks, the most current 15 lines of the event viewer log, etc. You can perform various levels of remote boot, and even utilize a scripting type offering called one to many.
It is incredibly powerful, and COMPLETELY worth the cost of the annual subscriptions.

Thank you very much. Used realvnc viewer on win 7 64bit, to connect to a mac laptop on OS X Mavericks.

I was using the built in vnc server for osx, but with the last 10.8.5 update my connection got a lot of lag. I updated my vnc viewers to the latest but that didn't help. I finally downloaded the vine vnc server ( turned off the osx vnc server ) and bingo problem solved. Thanks for the article, it was a great help.
