Web VPS

Here's how I run tightvncserver and LXDE in Debian. Remember, "apt-get" will be replaced with some variation of "yum" (not sure what - I'm not a CentOS user). This runs in about 90MB on my Debian VPS:

//Make sure Debian is the latest and greatest

apt-get update
apt-get upgrade
apt-get dist-upgrade

//Install X, LXDE, VPN programs

apt-get install xorg lxde-core tightvncserver

//Start VNC to create config file

tightvncserver :1

//Then stop VNC

tightvncserver -kill :1  

//Edit config file to start session with LXDE:

nano ~/.vnc/xstartup

#!/bin/sh
xrdb $HOME/.Xresources
xsetroot -solid black
lxterminal &
/usr/bin/lxsession -s LXDE &

//Restart VNC

tightvncserver :1  

You then connect using the VNC viewer of your choice on your local computer. I use the "VNC Free Edition Viewer for Windows Stand-Alone Viewer" at: http://www.realvnc.com Configure the viewer to access your VPS at: xxx.xxx.xxx.xxx:5901.

I've also used the VNC utility in Ubuntu 10.04 LTS using the same 5901 config.

Good luck!
