xhost +IP?

I'm trying to get a telnet connection to a remote computer working.
Its an isolated LAN, and I need all the performance I can get,
otherwise I'd be using ssh -X (which works).

I can't get xhost +192.0.3.242 to work:
$ xhost 192.0.3.242
192.0.3.242 being added to access control list

$ xhost
access control enabled, only authorized clients can connect
INET:odin
INET:odin
INET:odin
LOCAL:
------
And 192.0.3.242 still can't connect.  If I type xterm on 192.0.3.242, I get:
Xlib: connection to "192.0.3.2:0.0" refused by server
Xlib: No protocol specified

/usr/X11R6/bin/xterm.real Xt error: Can't open display: 192.0.3.2:0.0

This is with an Xwin I downloaded yesterday.

Any ideas?

TIA,
Thor Johnson
