xhost(1)

Also make sure your local X server is configured to accept tcp
connections, and you have no iptables rules blocking those.

Among other places, you will want to check for the DisalowTCP
tag on /etc/X11/gdm/gdm.conf, if you are using gdm (standard for
CentOS). I don't remember what the default is.
