I haven't played around much with it, but doing one of these :
- ssh r...@...
- ssh as normal user, then "sudo virt-install  ..." (instead of "su -"
or "sudo -s") should work.

As an alternative you could also modify domU config file (or
xend-config.sxp) to have vnc listen on 0.0.0.0 instead of localhost.
