Great; on your machine, you need to do
	xhost +machine.name.domain
(or just xhost +) from an xterm;

on the remote machine, do something like
	xv -display your.machine.domain:0.0
which will redirect it, or on the same machine do
	setenv DISPLAY your.machine.domain:0.0 (csh variants)
	export DISPLAY=your.machine.domain:0.0 (other shells eg bash)
which will do this redirection permanently.
