Remote X session, again

I can log onto a computer using X :1 -query remotebox
and run an X session.

But, if I telent to the box, and try a graphical thinggee like gv, I get

     _X11TransSocketINETConnect: Can't connect: errno = 111

I have removed the -nolisten tcp in Xserver, I have run xhosts+ on my
workstation, and the display variable is properly set by telnet on the
remote box. My firewall on the workstation is wide open.

     Although I am running X, what I don't see is X listening
     on 6000. There are no X servers listening, as a matter
     of a fact.

I am using linodows (Debian).

Any suggestions appreciated,

Thanks,

Joel
