remote client window to X server

I am trying to open a window (xterm) from a remote computer  to an Arch machine.
I always get connection close from the Arch machine.
It looks that X server (Xorg) is not configured to accept remote connections.
Is there a way to configure X, so that it accepts remote connections ?
Thanks,

Re: remote client window to X server

okay, I just found the solution:

  cp  /etc/X11/xinit/xserverrc ~/.xserverrc

then edit ".xserverrc" and remove the  "-nolisten tcp" option.

Note that I am not using any "gdm" or "xdm" to login, so my problem may exist only when "startx" is launched from a command line.
