You can start and stop this in less than a second to see if the clock shows up on your screen. When you get that working, then you can try more complex applications like LinuxCNC/Axis. Sometimes you still need to run xhost +<remote machine address>
Oh, also, it is VERY common for Linux distros to disable all remote X access in the Xserver config file. This should be easily found with a web search.
