How do I get x-windows to display on a LAN client?

Sustainable Softworks - IPNetRouter | FAQ
X-windows uses ports 6000-6063 to communicate with display procs.

There is probably a way to get this to work for multiple clients on your LAN by mapping a subset of the above ports to different IPs, although we have not figured out how to do it as yet.
