How can I install vncserver on my linux machine so that I can connect

I prefer Tiger: #yum install tigervnc-server
Works great from my android phone.
vnc passes your login information in the clear
ssh-forwarding is not rocket science
Oh, Reindl, you are so funny. If only I had your knowledge.
ssh-forwarding may not be rocket science to you but to others, well...
Love your help, now show us how.
Say you have SSHD running on port 599 and you are just using user login,
not an SSH cert you uploaded. And the server to connect to is at
130.129.0.97 (this is the IETF's address range; I had a server with me I
had to connect to). In a terminal window run:
ssh -p 599 -L 8902:130.129.0.97:5902 user@130.129.0.97
You will be prompted to login as user.
Then run vnc to localhost:8902
You are there.
This is how I have been doing it for years at IETF meetings when I have
had to connect home for one reason or another.
Tatu Yonen (sp?) kind of rubbed my face in this one. Kind of hard NOT
to listen to the advice of the guy who created SSH...
