Remote X-Display Problems

I just installed FC1 and am now unable to display X sessions back to my box.
Access to the remote machine is done via ssh and I am using the -X option to
ensure that X-Display is activated.
I have tried:
xhost + (on the local machine)
export DISPLAY=148.80.180.89:0.0
I get this error when attempting to display the X-Session back:
Can't connect to X11 window server using '148.80.180.89:0.0' as the value of
the DISPLAY variable.
I've performed a netstat -an and found that x11, port 6000, is not listening
on the local machine.
I've also found that I am unable to remote display X-Sessions from my local
box from a remote box.
While iptables is installed, not firewall is running:
Chain INPUT (policy ACCEPT 0 packets, 0 bytes)
pkts bytes target prot opt in out source
destination
Chain FORWARD (policy ACCEPT 0 packets, 0 bytes)
pkts bytes target prot opt in out source
destination
Chain OUTPUT (policy ACCEPT 0 packets, 0 bytes)
pkts bytes target prot opt in out source
destination
Everything worked fine with RH9.
Does anyone have any idea where I should start looking?
TIA!
