vnc works, but you will find it painfully slow. It's OK for emergency 
admin, but not for heavy use.

You need to use nx (or freenx) to get a usable remote gui over adsl or 
cable. Once configured properly, nx is wonderful!

In my experience, the commercial nx software has been easier to get up 
and running than freenx. ymmv.
