xterm Xt error: Can't open display..


Could someone share some ideas and possible
resolutions as to why I'm experiencing the following?

xterm Xt error:  Can't open display: 172.23.104.56

I'm simply trying to run X clients from one desktop to
another.  My methods are:

//from my desktop #1
DISPLAY=localhost:0.0
export DISPLAY
xterm &

I've also tried:
DISPLAY=172.23.104.56:0.0

The box that I had telnetted into is also dynamically
IP assigned.  It's a SuSE 6.4 installation that today
successfully runs KDE and Windowmaker

Thanks for your advice
