Ankush:
1> For a very simple setup, get TightVNC from www.tightvnc.com for
your Windows machine.
2> Setup a tunnel in PuTTY from local port 5901 to remote port 5901
on your Linux machine.
3> SSH login to your Linux machine and start VNCSERVER.
4> Start TightVNC on your Windows machine and point it to
localhost:1.
5> Presto changeo you will have a Linux desktop on your Windows
machine with secure login.
6> Ooops I forgot one thing. You need to edit ~/.vnc/xstartup and
uncomment the two lines to allow you to have a normal desktop. It
will be obvious when you edit the file what to uncomment.
