[Blind-sysadmins] remote access to a linux box

Hello, I know about ssh, in fact that's how I usually access a linux machine remotely. That's cli based, I'm wondering if it's possible to do it via the GUI? Is something like vnc workable? I know it isn't on a windows machine, or some other method of access? In this case I'm using a Vinux VM with Orca. Thanks. Dave.
