Remote host should be able to find your host by the name. So, in most cases 
it should be a fully-qualified domain name or (in case you don't have that - 
say because you are using PPP to connect to the internet) just a valid current
IP address of your "debian" box. So, set DISPLAY to something like
203.234.22.33:0.0 and it should work.

Good luck.
