Thanks for the excellent suggestion, Andrew!  I'm from the old  
school, and accustomed to setting up the tunnels by hand.  Since I  
rarely use VNC myself, I was unaware of this option.  I have re- 
written the appropriate section of the guide to make use of this more  
modern, and simple approach at making the connection, and the Wiki  
page has been updated with the re-write.

Peace,
