well, i use tightvnc to connect to my linux servers inside of my lan like everyday. it's fast and 
works flawlessly. i have used this a couple times to connect to my linux box at home from work. this 
was just to prove to myself that i could do it. haven't really thought about security over the net 
since i don't use it for that. since i use ssh to connect to my home box from work, i find no need 
to see a gui. i usually just need to drop off or pick up a file. i also syncronize my work box to my 
home box with ssh.
