sudo vim /etc/ssh/sshd_config and make sure X11Forwarding is set to yes on the box you are ssh’ing too.
ssh -v -X -C xxx.xxx.xxx.xxx (-X specifies X forwarding, -C specifies compression, -v is verbose)
once logged in, simply execute “xinit” if it’s not already running on that box, and then fire off the name of your application. Examples:
- gnome-session (will start gnome)
- startkde (will start kde)
- firefox (will forward firefox to your machine)
