[gentoo-user] Remotely working on Gentoo systems

[Jake Moe]

I've got two Gentoo boxes, and would like to run X apps from both on one
display.  From reading up on it, it appears that while this is possible,
it's also not recommended from a security standpoint, and the few HOWTOs
I've found for it seem to be 4-6 years old.  Can anyone tell me:

a) if this is a good idea in the first place,
b) should I be looking at VNC instead of remote X,
c) is there another option I should be looking at, and
d) if there is a good HOWTO on setting up whichever is the best to use
on a recent Gentoo system?
