It may be that you don't have the display variable set up on the linux side.
When I want to use the Sun Java Directory Server on my LDAP server, I ssh to the machine and run this little script:
This sets the DISPLAY variable based on the ip from which you connnected. The linux box needs to know where to send the display based on the DISPLAY variable. In my script, after the variable is set, it runs the startconsole program. This is on a Solaris system; on a normal linux system Xterm is usually used.
So, typically, you would ssh to the box, set the DISPLAY and then run the program you want on the Linux machine. Does that make sense?
