I forgot to say, if the DISPLAY variable in your session does not have a
hostname (.e.g ":1000.0"), then you'll need to set it with a hostname
for the remote processes (e.g. "foo:1000.0").

Also if the remote nodes don't have your home directory then they will
be missing the .Xauthority file and will be unable to authenticate. If
this happens, xhost + will get it going, but is insecure.

If it is not clear why it doesn't work within your grid framework, then
just running something like "rsh foo xclock" should help you to diagnose
the problem.
