So try and find this by something like <tt>sudo grep -n -r nolisten /etc</tt> and then comment this out from the appropriate file. Restart [X].
Then on a shell on the local machine type <tt>xhost +</tt> (or alternatively a host name instead of +). Then on the shell on the remote machine type <tt>DISPLAY = host:0.0 ; export DISPLAY</tt> where host is the hostname of the local machine. Now start your program in the remote shell by typing the commandline startup e.g. <tt>openoffice</tt> and it will appear on your local desktop.
+A better way of doing this; use "ssh -X" when you connect to the remote host. This will set up an encrypted tunnel for programs on the remote system to communicate with the X server, and set up the DISPLAY variable to use it.
