Alternate way would be to use MSTSC/RDP Connection ....RDP is bit easy and will give better experience..

@Rohit:

Yes RDP is used for Windows instance, port 3389 should be allowed for Incoming on Security group.
and ssh is used for Linux instance, port 22 should be allowed for Incoming on Security group.

Connecting using VNC should be last choice, however I recommend to reset the VNC password to something you can remember.
