How about just tunneling VNC over SSH?  That provides a secure path.  Google
for it... ssh over vnc howto finds a bunch, including this

VNC port forwarding using ssh HOWTO at http://www.ltsp.org/contrib/vnc.html

Subject: Encrypted Remote display?


Hi list!!

I am looking for a tool which will be a kind of "secured VNC".
What I would like at the end is the following:

I have a WinXP and a RedHat, with an Apache running on the
latter. I currently access my Redhat from XP through Apache and
https, and would like to be able to run tools on my Linux through
my https connection on my IE, tools needing an GTK display
(FWBuilder and Cheops) :(

So...any ideas? I am lost? I'd rather asking before starting
developing a tool to perform that!
