assuming your laptop and remote-machine is X11 capable:
- you can use ip#
or by name
- www.remote-machine.com if your dns/hosts files is setup right
laptop# xhost +remote-machine
laptop# ssh -l loginName remote-machine
login@remote-machine# export DISPLAY=laptop:0.0
login@remote-machine# xterm - see if it works
login@remote-machine# pymol

yes .. many different ways to do that

the machine you intend to run pymol will need all
the supporting libraries ...

you need to define DISPLAY environment variables on
the remote machine and also allow it to export and display
on your (local) laptop
- some folks consider this "dangerous" but
it does help to get work done ... just be careful
( always use ssh ... NOT telnet or other un-encrypted sessions )

that is NOT sufficient...
the environment variable DISPLAY must also be defined
explicitly or defined with ssh login command
have fun
