From the VVA.guide (requirements):
Quote

In order to use VVA you need the following minimum configuration

        - An Amiga capable to display at least 256 colors, AGA or gfx-card
        - CPU 68020 or better
        - AmigaOS 3.0 and up
        - A TCP/IP-stack, like Miami, AmiTCP (v3 and up), or Genesis
        - A running VNC-Server anywhere in your reachable network
        - reqtools.library

In order to take advantage of more than 256 colors, a gfx-card is required
with CyberGraphics or Picasso96 RTG software.


------------------
My own experience:
I run successfully the VVA client on my A600 with an accelerator (030@40), but I think I encountered problems when I had pulled the FPU out for heat problems (the program couldn't start?).
------------------

2fast, 2furious:
Sorry, never used an AGA app in A600 :oops:
This was for another remote access program that I used, an X-server... So don't consider what I wrote above (although the reqs are valid).


Anyway, you will certainly need some extra memory, for the client and the vva-screen itself (precious chip mem, if you don't have a gfx card).

@BigBenAussie

Sure it is possible, but not a safe habit to leave a full remote access ready for everybody... (you'll have to leave the server's port available through the firewall)

VNC is a cross-platform solution (ex. Amiga-Windows), but if you use PCs at your work also, you may prefer a more native solution (XWindows for Unix systems, remote desktop for windows etc.).
