I have recently run into a situation where I need to export my display
from a server without ssh to my gentoo box.  (I had to actually install
telnet to do this)

I have done the following:

on the server:
set the DISPLAY=192.168.0.234:0.0

on my box:
Created a rule to allow that server IP (192.168.0.3) in my IP Tables
rules.
xhost + 192.168.0.3 (on my gentoo box)
even removed "-nolisten tcp" from the /usr/X11R6/bin/startx script
restarted X

I am still unable to get any X apps from that server to work on my box.
I am able to get various X apps to export to my box from other hosts
using ssh, but for some reason the connections for this one just time
out.

If anyone has any ideas where I might go from here, that would be great.

Thanks in advance,

-andrew
