xhost +  and trying to run graphical app

I have an oracle linux basic server updated.

I need to test and installation with an GUI but I cannot do it. I found a lot of information so I did this:

connect with putty on an ssh to my server oracle linux with it´s ip address 192.168.100.62

I did the connection with my desktop with it´s ip addresss 192.168.100.34

When connecting I did with oracle user and I export DISPLAY as

export DISPLAY=192.168.100.34:0.0

then

xhost + 192.168.100.34 but show me xhost:  unable to open display ""

and of course did not let me run for example xclock Error: Can't open display:

I am a basic linux user but I like to learn, but I need how to configure my server oracle linux to run some GUI apps or installation

Thanks
