Accessing VMs outside my home network

[MadMac Mig]

Hello, my name is Miguel, and I am new to Proxmox.

I have been trying to find out how to access my VMs outside my home network using VNC viewer. Is there any way to do it? As I really need this for work.
My VMs are running the latest version of Ubuntu.

Thanks in advance.

Please do not make VNC accessible over the internet.
You should establish a VPN connection into your home network and access the VMs just like you were home.

Imho this is nothing specific to Proxmox rather than using VNC as remote protocol.
There are plenty of guides in the web.

This is an example I found:
https://www.linuxtopia.org/HowToGuides/VNC_setup_Linux_Windows.html
Those are in German, but google translate might help

But make sure to tunnel the connection through SSH and make sure you tie this down to certificate based author, perhaps no standard port, etc.

you should use a NAT setup on your PVE host, so you can forward ports to your VMs. i suggest setting up a VM/CT for VPN connections and opening that. this way you can connect to the VPN and securely connect to your VM with VNC/SSH or whatever you like.
