Your IP is 192.168.100.100
The other computer is 192.168.200.200
The typical step for running an xhost session is
1) On your computer you use this command to allow them access:
xhost + 192.168.200.200
2) On the other computer this commands tells it where to display all new windows:
export DISPLAY=192.168.100.100:0.0
3) On the other computer you run an application.
gnome-terminal
Problem is you get this message on the other computer:
> Can not open display:
And the terminal window doesn't appear no your computer.
Solution:
Allow TCP connections to X11 and open up the port 6000 in the firewall.

from true to false
3) In your firewall allow port 6000
4) Log out and log back to restart gdm
5) Now try the xhost commands from above
