The remote machine is trying to display on the local
machine but the local machine is not giving the remote
machine permission to display
On system running RH < 5.0 add the line in .Xclients
xhost + name_of_remote_machine@domain
On RH >=5.0 create a file called .Xclients and add the line
xhost + name_of_remote_machine@domain
