GTKUI from remote machine

I want to use GTKUI to connect to remote server... I already understand classic mode should be turned off, but how can I make deluged runnin on remote server listen to 0.0.0.0:58846 instead of 127.0.0.1:58846 ? I think that would be most elegant solution. I also saw it's possible that ssh tunnel can help on this matter, but never made it before, I see it's fairly simple, but then somewhat complicated... Will someone help me?

edit:
It's common for me that I solve something while waiting for help
So I think I successfully managed to setup the thunnel with command issued at remote server:
ssh -g -N -f -L xxxxx:127.0.0.1:58846 root@0.0.0.0

But GTK UI seems that it still cannot connect. Perhaps this is because I see username/password is requested, but in web ui, only password is needed, so what is the username?? this is just my wild guess...

Thanks, that's it... I'm sure I've read somewhere about how the deluged is unable to listen to RPC requests on 0.0.0.0... Anyway, thanks...

Seems like 768 kbps line speed is not enough for remote GTKUi... It's acting so slow that it's impossible to use, web interface is much faster, and I was thinking maybe it would be contrary...

The communication between daemon and client isn't really optimized.. It can use quite a bit of bandwidth, it's really only suggested use is on a LAN.
