Remote X Apps

Been trying to run a remote aplication.  I.e. I have been using ssh to
conect to a remote PC on our network and running gkrellm on the remote
computer with the GUI coming up on my local PC.

So on the local machene I have tried 

xhost +192.168.x.x

or just 

xhost +

and on the remote computer doing 

gkrellm -display 192.168.7.252

I have tried appending :0 and :0.0 to the end but always get the error

(gkrellm:24422): Gtk-WARNING **: cannot open display:

Any idea what I am doing wrong?
