No I'm talking about destination nat where an external IP is
permanently mapped to an internal ip so that one or more ports on that
IP are exposed. To an external client it looks like the web server (for
instance) is running on the external ip but it's really on an internal host.

Well, I've heard it called "port forwarding" but it's really
destination nat :-)

FWIW I seem to remember that VNC uses port 5900...
