The other option that I use is SSH SSH allows you to tunnel any port over a secure connection. It also can allow in some circumstances to run the SSH server on any computer and tunnel traffic through it.
e.g. pc1--->ssh client ---->ssh server<----ssh client<-----pc2 vnc<----------------------------------------------------------------->vnc However, SSH is also a dificult beast to tame. The quickest and easiest solution would probably be vnc enterprise which should be available soon.
