How do I export a Linux desktop?
from your X Server do xhost +client_ip from your X client do export DISPLAY=server_ip:0
note that the server is the machine that you will be using to display, and the client is the machine where the programs who's display is exported will be run.
You cannot export the entire desktop this way.
If you want to export the entire desktop, then get VNC. Download the rpm from rpmfind.

It also depends upon what do you mean by exporting the desktop. If you really want to export the desktop that is visible to another person, then i agree that you need to get VNC. But if you want your own session you can do it by exporting the DISPLAY variable as explained by philip, just the you have to run the correct program. You can run gnome-session to get the Desktop if you are running gnome.
