To get X to listen, check out the XDMCP howto from this page:
http://www.tldp.org/HOWTO/HOWTO-INDEX/apps.html#GUI There's also a more
general howto on running single remote X apps.
In a nutshell, you need to edit your gdm.conf (for gnome)or kdm.conf (KDE)
to enable XDMCP connections. On my system, it lives in /etc/gdm/gdm.conf.
The config file is fairly self-explanatory (xdmcp=1, for example) Look to
see that it's enabled and is listening to the correct port. Also, be very
certain that the port is not directly accessible from the internet.
