A-ha! Step 3 was the non-intuitive one...

I also found when I digged in the manual a bit deeper, that putty allows to add ssh-stype forwarding controls in the command line too! So I have made a shortcut that includes ...putty -ssh -L5901:localhost:5900 -l Administrator <the-hostname> and it comes up just fine.
