If this is a default Debian install, GDM doesn't listen on the network
any more. Here's how to change that:
sudo gdmsetup
Choose the "Security" tab
Uncheck "Deny TCP connections to Xserver"

sudo /etc/init.d/gdm restart

Alternatively:
Edit /etc/gdm/gdm.conf:
> [security] DisallowTCP=false
And then restart GDM.
