'The Ubuntu Guide' http://ubuntuguide.org/wiki/Ubuntu:Edgy in section 1.19.7 SSH Server gives a good rundown of all the commands that you need to manage a remote server without having to install VNC.

I do understand what you say about being new to GNU/Linux but the ssh route is the preferable way to go - and you may well find that it's actually simpler than coping with VNC.
