Most XWindows applications will respond to a commandline option that'll tell 
them which display to go to. So if you want xterm to display on Machine1, you'd 
go:

xterm -display Machine1:0.0

(the 0.0 number should change if you've got more than 1 X running on that 
machine).

You can make this permanent by setting the environment variable "DISPLAY". In 
sh/bash:

  DISPLAY="Machine1:0.0"; export DISPLAY

In csh/tcsh:

  setenv DISPLAY "Machine1:0.0"

If you set this in an xterm, all programs you run from THAT TERMINAL will try 
to display on Machine1. 

You might need to use the xhost command on Machine1 to allow Machine2 to 
display on it. To do this, run:

  xhost Machine2

on machine1.

HTH,

-Yaron
