ISTR Tiger has its own version of X11 - it's on the CD. Install it
and you should find your X server listening on port 6000 on all IPs,
as it is on my system (10.4.2).
You're still better off using ssh X11 forwarding. It's not port
forwarding you need to turn on, but X11 forwarding in the
configuration of the remote ssh daemon. Then ssh -X will work. If
you can't control that config, then you can fake it by explicitly
forwarding remote port 6000 + n to local port 6000 and manually
setting DISPLAY on the remote system to :n.
