It should work...
Just to double check the obvious:
you have the correct IP/hostname for the DISPLAY?
When you xhost + on the "client machine" that is your Ubuntu machine? Also you ran that command as the same user that is running the X display? It might have to be run as root, even.
Are you running any firewall on Ubuntu?
Just a few things to check.
