Looking for remote desktop app for Mac OS X

Asked by Sam Jackson

I work remotely, and am forced to use an ancient Mac Powerbook that is extremely slow. The software I use for it is Timbuktu, which I hate. The computer I remotely operate also is a Mac, and so knowing there are open-source alternatives out there, I wanted to know if anyone knows of a remote desktop app that would work with Ubuntu 14.04 and let me operate a Mac using OS X. NOT 10.5, I know NoMachine works with Mac 10.5, but my work desktop only uses version OS X and they won't upgade. Any suggestings you all would have that would allow me to use my Ubuntu machine would be gratefuly accepted.

What are you connecting to the Mac to achieve?

Why do you need a remote desktop application?
