Is there any way to enable a Mac (running Snow Leopard) to allow a remote user to log in to his own GUI session, independent of whatever a physically present user is doing? You know, like "screen sharing," but with your own separate desktop?

In Linux, it's as simple as choosing to log into a different "display" with your VNC client, or you can run an NX Server which recreates a GUI for the host using data over SSH.

So far, though, I haven't been able to find any comprable options for OS X. Can anyone point me in the right direction?
