Let me be more explicit..

>From a client xterm:

	client% xhost +server
	client% telnet server
	...
	server% setenv DISPLAY client:0
	server% gnucash &

Yes, every invocation of gnucash (or any other X-based app) from the
server% shell will display on Client.  However, if you are logged into
server from another shell, or locally, it wont affect that.
