I need some X help.

I want to "monitor" a window on another machine from my machine.
I have source for all software running but would rather not modify any of it.
I have full control of unix permissions etc.

Ideally I'd like to tell the server on the other machine to duplicate the 
window on my display. I need no control over the "copied" window but I would
watch what someone else was doing and see all updates to this window. It would
be teacher/student type situation where the teacher can spy on the students
progress/work habits.

Perhaps I'll need an application that can decode names into window IDs on
the other machine--that would be fine.

Any hints or solutions would are appreciated.
Thanks
