arrrg, no, of course not vpn, vnc is what I meant. For example have a
look at the thightvnc package. But this doesn't support encryption
either. ssh tunneling would be the way to go I think. At least this will
probably be easier using a vnc solution, because it does not need dozens
of ports to be forwarded.
