For my Remote Accessing I use NX... Although initially I started with
"FreeNX", early on I found NX from "NoMachine" was more "Stable", so I
have stayed with NoMachine's Releases since:

All you have to do is Open a SSH Tunnel through your NATed Firewall and if
SSH Connections already "Work" (make sure Ubuntu's "OpenSSH-Server"
Package is installed), then NX Sessions should just "Work"... For that
you would require NXClient, NXNode, NXServer (installed in that order) on
your Ubuntu Machine!!!
