I use SSH tunneling and VNC. You will need to set up a VNC server on your remote machine and start a vnc session.
Add the
-Lflag on your SSH connect.-L 5555:localhost:5901– this means bind local port 5555 to 5901 on the remote machine.Finally, use
vncviewer localhost:5555to connect to the remote machine through SSH.Doing it this way, all your traffic will be sent over SSH and be encrypted. This is important, because VNC is an unencrypted protocol.
