Try: export DISPLAY=<remote machine>:0. on the server.

The remote machine will also need to be xhost+ (bad idea) or have the server name listed in X.0

    Another option might be to use X forwarding over SSH. If X forwarding is enabled on the server, it should be no problem. Check the man page, and this link here.
