If you are going from mac to mac then ssh is built in. This creates a
secure encrypted tunnel between the two machines.
Open a terminal window (Apps - Utilities - Terminal)
Type:
ssh -L 3000:localhost:5900 remoteusername@remote host
Once you enter the passwd of the remote host you are in.
Consider using a personal VPN such as Hamachi to tunnel your control
software through. It is encrypted end-to-end and works very well.

Windows component may open up pandora's box. For this reason many, if
not most, companies have banned VNC from their internal networks.
Yeah, yuck!

The VNC thing should work. There may be some latency
issues, but maybe not. *Heed Jack's warning*. VNC's
can be very risky.
