Janine,

Jeff is correct. I use ssh forwarded X all the time (although it will remind you of dial up speeds.)

Make sure you have in your sshd xforwarding set to on and also the one about terminals ( I forgot the name).

I believe that the default is not to forward X. Also, make sure your router forwards the ports correctly (I don't remember the numbers (although they are easy to find).

I frequently work on remote Internet servers via ssh. If you fire up emacs 21 in X windows mode on a remote Internet server, the lag will drive you crazy. emacs 20.7 works great though.
