If I got right the problem, Kevin has some VM in a grid that need to send some graphic output to an X Server, and since they are in a grid I think he has many of them (this is a problem the shell could fix) they may change (changing IP and such) and maybe he can't even log on them (hard to fix with a shell script). Sadly an SSH tunnel is not the answer. He really need the dear old X11 network transparency. BTW, Kevin. If I remember well, there should be a file in /etc/X11 where X is started with the -nolisten parameter.
