I highly recommend you use ssh and disable the r* services altogether.
You get better security and the display set up for you. Win-win
situation.

There are still security concerns when forwarding X connections.
Here is what I use in /etc/ssh/ssh_config:

# venus is another local machine
Host venus
   ForwardAgent yes
   ForwardX11 yes
# no one else gets forwarded
Host *
   ForwardAgent no
   ForwardX11 no
