I've just tried similar configuration. I've started Xvnc (TightVNC
1.3.9) like this:

$ vncserver -geometry 1280x1024 -localhost

New 'X' desktop is gw.tightvnc.com:2

Then, I've started PuTTY with local port forwarding:

L5902 localhost:5902

Then, connected with PuTTY and directed vncviewer (TightVNC 1.3.9 for
Windows) to localhost:2.

Everything worked fine -- I connected to Xvnc via an encrypted PuTTY
tunnel.

-- 
With Best Wishes,
Constantin
