As for remoting the :0 display, here is a fragment from VNC FAQ at VNC web
site:

"There are three ways this can be done. For XFree86 version 4 X servers, a
loadable module is provided which adds the VNC server functionality. For
other X servers it is possible to build a replacement for the native X
server binary which is VNC-enabled. A third way is an inefficient but
non-invasive VNC server called x0vncserver, which continuously polls any X
display, allowing it to be controlled via VNC."
