remote X sessions

I've been all over the internet tonight looking for exactly what I want
and I can't find it. What I'd like to be able to do is type something
like

$ startx

Maybe with a whole lot of command line options even and be able to open
an X session running fluxbox or twm or some other light window manager
on a completely separate machine on my lan. I'm so rarely in a window
manager now that I'd like to be able to just use one off another
computer and stick to a console only install on my main system since I'm
the only person that uses it. Any ideas or places to look would be
appreciated.
