I think you need to man xhost to understand what it does and can do, etc as it appears your going about it all wrong. And you should look into using rdesktop or vnc instead, much easier to use, etc.

And you should really use better thread titles in the future, yours quite frankly is lame and I'll ask you now to make better ones that actually describe your problem.

Cheers.
