On the machine that you're trying to connect to, try running (as root)
netstat -ntlp for me.

I think you'll find that X isn't listening on any TCP socket. It
certainly isn't on my ubuntu desktop.


The X server on the remote machine shouldn't have anything to do with this.
You can run X clients on a CPU which doesn't have a server as long as they
have a valiud $DISPLAY to connect to (as many of us can testify - e.g.
installing Oracle through their Java-based installer on some remote server
which doesn't even have a monitor).
