I don't use NX, but the various VNC solutions works like a charm and are easy 
to setup (using ssh port forwarding), if all you want is to check something.
Use x11vnc to connect to an existing session, and one of the various vncserver 
to create a new session.

Ssh port forwarding is like:
ssh 5901:localhost:5900 you <at> distant_ip 
then you launch vnc on the distant_ip and a vnc client on your host.

Ssh port forwarding is very powerful. I've gave you the simplest form I know, 
but I don't use it like this, there is a lot of options depending on your 
setup. Read the documentation or ask here.
