A secure way would be to SSH from the X11 server to the client, example: x11-server-this-is-the-screen% ssh -X client-where-app-is-started xclock then xclock displays on the screen, completely safely and security through SSH. However, if you really want to open the TCP port 6000 so as to make your X11 setup insecure, you simply need to modify /etc/X11/xinit/xserverrc and remove the `-nolisten tcp' -- To UNSUBSCRIBE, email to debian-user-requ...@lists.debian.org with a subject of "unsubscribe".
