i haven't done this with iptables but basicly it's just port 5900 + server
number. For example:

5900 for server :0
5901 for server :1...

allow that traffic to move and you'll just fine.. 

i personally like the ssh solution more:
ssh -L 5901:remotehost:5900 remoteGW

and then connect to local machine and server 1. Although you should set a
compression method if you use this, by default it's raw and it's sloooow.
