If your goal is to run X applications via ssh, then I would try this:

http://www.debian.org/doc/manuals/reference/ch-tune.en.html#s-xssh

IIRC, the X client (the ssh server) needs the xauth package if it does
not have its own X installation.

Another possibility is to use the xrsh package.
  

Florian,

Many thanks, because the remote system is light, I do not prefer to use SSH ( sorry, the line telenet 192.168.1.8 was missing in the problem description))
When I telnet from a Slackware client to the remote host running Lenny + JWM-desktop it is working fine !
So the problem is client pc running Lenny + KDE + xhost +  does not accept  incoming  TCP + X

So big question: Where is the  is this filter set  ?

Anyone has any idea ?


Thanks,

Dieter
