Does that make any sense? VNC is about so-called "desktop sharing" and is
implicitly about GUIs. If all you need in the way of remote access is a
CLI, then SSH is what you want.
Conversely, if you want to run programs on your Linux box and interact
with them from the keyboard, display and mouse of a remote site, then you
want to invoke those programs on your box with the DISPLAY environment
variable set to refer to the host where that keyboard, display and mouse
exist and, of course, the necessary security setup in place on that X
server.
Don't ask me about setting up non-local X service, however. I've never
done it.
