So I've just started running VNC to my machine at home. Next its time to try and tunnel everything from SSH.

I was wondering if any FTers have any experience on how VNC works when tunneled through SSH. I don't plan on doing anything intensive. Some IM and access to my online banking etc.
It will be appreciably slower than what you're used to on your desktop, but usable for the casual uses you describe.
