Is it possible to configure remote desktop on remote server using only terminal?

on server (ubuntu 11.10 server), i can access it using ssh (seperuser available)

Thank for any help!

Look up ssh tunneling

Have you already installed Openssh server on the remote server you want to access using terminal ?

You could, in theory, tunnel a vnc connection over ssh. Though it's easier and faster to have individual programs connect back using X11-tunneling if you only plan on using one or two programs (it would be a bit wasteful on both speed and remote resources to tunnel a whole desktop for 1 program).
