Joydeep,

You can do everything via the cli. If you are not comfortable doing it 
that way (my advice it to learn the cli it definitely makes life 
easier), get the NoMachine NX server (http://www.nomachine.com). They 
have a free as in beer edition. NX tunnels via ssh, is extremely fast 
and is dead simple to install and use. You will need to install the 
client, node and server rpms on the remote server. You'll need the 
client rpm on the machines that will be connecting to the remote server.

Cheers,

Alex C.
