ssh into the box you're trying to talk to using ssh -X hostname
and then run hp-toolbox, and it should magically appear on your display (assuming you've got ssh set up correctly!)
Magic isn't it.
The other thing you *sometimes* need is "ssh -Y hostname" this does clever things with the X security stuff. I need it when I connect from my home machine into the work Solaris systems if I want to run X applications on my home screen.
