I like using X. Either start your session locally and login to a
remote machine, for example using "ssh -X <host>" and start the
application there, or configure the remote X server to listen to tcp,
and connect your local X server using X -query <hostname>.
There are some nice Howtos out there, or read the X11 chapter of the
FreeBSD manual, especially "The X Display-Manager":

Should describe everything you need...
