Setup the SSH server and VNC server on the Linux box. Setup the Client PC: Launch PuTTY. Under session: Host Name: your Unix box FQDN or IP Click SSH Give the session a name
Under: Connection / SSH / Tunnels Enter a port forward for Local Source Port: 5901 Destination: localhost:5900 Click Add Click on session again and save it. Now launch (Open) your PuTTY session and logon to your Linux box's SSH server. Then launch your VNC Viewer and enter localhost:1 as the VNC Server. Your SSH session will forward it to your Linux box. You should get prompted for the VNC Password setup on the VNC server on Linux. You should now be connected to the Linux box via VNC.
