The server must enabled xdmp protocol. /etc/sysconfig/displaymanager
Then start from a bash shell 

	xwin -query host -from $COMPUTERNAME &

Another way is to connect the server using ssh and open a kicker panel on your 
pc. 

export DISPLAY=127.0.0.1:0
xwin -multiwindow &
xhost + 
ssh user@host 
export DISPLAY=<your_host_ip_address>:0
kicker &
