Well, you can use

Zebedee:
http://www.winton.org.uk/zebedee/manual.html
(no direct link, but the "Use with VNC" section has the info)

Stunnel:
http://www.securityfocus.com/infocus/1677

In both cases you just allow the tunnel program to act as a server.  You
can also use "Only accept connections from the local machine" checkbox in
VNC4 (it is a registry entry in VNC3) to make sure only your tunnels can
get to VNC.

In the future, please post new questions to a new thread, though.
