xhost + on subneted

Hi,

i have an aix5.3 machine that i need to have xwindows, xterm, enabled.
if i am in the same subnet as the machine, i have no problem when i do
export DISPLAY=pc/hostname:0.0
xhost +
then i can use the xterm;

however if i try the same export DISPLAY but to a machine in a different
subnet it complains about : cannot open display.

do you know if the x11 works for the same subnet only ?
is there any configuration change that i need to do in order to get xterm from
another subnet ?


thank you
