Won't you need an Xserver on the Mac to do that? I assume you mean you want
to export the DISPLAY on the remote machine to the machine you're sat at
then run a program on the remote machine that would display on the Mac?

Sounds like you need a Mac equivalent of eXceed, or maybe just use VNC?

How about MI/X? It's free, can't say how good it is though.

Apple supply MacX but it aint free.
