VNC connect from Mac OSX El capitan to Ubuntu Linxu

Edit 2016-11-05

This is actually trivial, here are the steps.


  1. On the remote Ubuntu "workstation", run
    $ vncserver
  2. On the home Mac machine, run your favorite SSH tunnel
    $ ssh -t -L 5901:localhost:5901 workstation
  3. Open up the vnc screen in a Mac window
    $ open vnc://localhost:5901
