thx!
in the ubuntu docs i found something maybe relevant:
"
Remote Port Forwarding
Remote port forwarding lets you connect from the remote SSH server to another server. To use remote port forwarding, you need to know your destination server, and two port numbers. You should already know your destination server, and for basic uses of port forwarding, you can usually use the port numbers in Wikipedia's list of TCP and UDP port numbers.
For example, say you wanted to let a friend access your remote desktop, using the command-line SSH client. You would use port number 5900 (the first VNC port), and destination server localhost:
ssh -R 5900:localhost:5900 guest@joes-pc
The -R option specifies remote port forwarding. For the duration of the SSH session, Joe would be able to access your desktop by connecting a VNC client to port 5900 on his computer (if you had set up a shared desktop).
"
applied to our task it would be "-R5901:localhost:5901" I think. The -R Option is the key. got it...
But what to do with "guest@joes-pc" hmmm.. and how to change the vncviewer configuration... they write "on his server"... hmm
