a differant perspective, but I have been trying to solve the same problem and 
it's VeryHard, so lots of workaround have been mentioned.

BASICALLY you need to open port 6000 and allow X ie xhost or xauth options.

What I'd like to do is use ssh ie the way ldm's greeter writes onto a foreign 
display, but I do not understand howto yet

I'll cross post to the developer list to see if anybody can point me in the 
right direction

Can anyone tell me please, just broad general, read the source Luke type 
guidelines
