basic:
ssh -X user@host
from the ssh manual
-X Enables X11 forwarding. This can also be specified on a
per-host basis in a configuration file.
X11 forwarding should be enabled with caution. Users with
the ability to bypass file permissions
on the remote host (for the user's X authorization
database) can access the local X11 display
through the forwarded connection. An attacker may then be
able to perform activities such as
keystroke monitoring.
For this reason, X11 forwarding is subjected to X11
SECURITY extension restrictions by default.
Please refer to the ssh -Y option and the ForwardX11Trusted
directive in ssh_config(5) for more
information.
-Y Enables trusted X11 forwarding. Trusted X11 forwardings
are not subjected to the X11 SECURITY
extension controls.
more comfy :
Remote Desktop Client 'krdc'
GnomeMeeting is a VoIP app ( with Video ??? )
If you try to do cross platfor VNC I recommend using just any VNC client
n Linux and TightVNC for Window$. Another solution would be NoMachine's NX
