ssh w/X11 forwarding works just fine for me. Enable X11-forwarding in the 
backend's sshd config file, then:

ssh -X user at backend

Not sure what else might need doing, this works out of the box on FC3 
(X11-forwarding is already enabled in FC3's sshd, but the -X is needed to 
tell the client to enable X11-forwarding also).

You should probably collaborate with David George, he mentioned doing the same 
thing earlier in this thread.
