Traditionally, you connect to another machine with X _before_ you even login. You should notice a drop-down menu to choose a system on which to login from the login dialog box. This dialog is displayed by either xdm, gdm or something else that kde uses, probably kdm. The <blah>dm program has some way of exploring the network and getting a list of what boxes might let you login. After login, your local system drives the screen, the system on which you're logged in runs all the programs. So, contrary to the "normal" state of affairs, your local system is the server. It responds to commands that alter the screen. These commands are given by the client, the remote machine on which you've logged in. To make this work, see the Linux Terminal Server Project, or read one of the howtos, or read the man on the <blah>dm programs.
