rsh does that. I think it uses a file called .rhosts (see man
page for further details). Of course, people will tell you that using
this is equivalent of blasphemy and heressy... :-)

I _think_ that rsh doesn't do the forwarding, that's an X11
add-on. With rsh, you can log into the remote box, issue a command with
a given DISPLAY variable and put it in your desktop. So if you do
something like rsh baboon "export DISPLAY=chimp:0.0;xemacs", you should
get an Xemacs in your remote desktop (assumed to be chimp here).
Hope that helps,
José
