The thing to do is to install wireshark on the system without X.
Then from a machine with X:
ssh -Xf user@xxxxxxxxxxxxxxxx wireshark
Yours is the coolest answer, though the others were also helpful.
You can also 'ssh -Y user@machine', log in and 'wireshark &' to start
it, which will open a new window on your desktop. I think you also need
to install wireshark-gnome for the GUI part.
When capturing, you'll probably want to do capture/options and add a
capture filter like 'not host your_desktop' to ignore the traffic that
the window is sending.
