The starnet.com offering is a good solid server. There is a freeware X server associated with some GIS software. The server is called "mix", last I checked there were no access controls in the server, which is bad if you're connected to a hostile network, eg. the Internet. Check freshmeat.net, there should be pointers to a java X server floating around. Also look into "vnc", also indexed at freshmeat.
