If you have one specific internal X server, add a NAT redirect on your
router (in ipnat.conf):

rdr IFNAME 0/0 port 6000 -> 10.X.Y.Z port 6000 tcp

where IFNAME is the name of your _external_ interface--ppp0, sl0, or an
ethernet interface if using cable/dsl/etc.

Then use your external IP address, instead of 10.X.Y.Z, to find your
$DISPLAY.
