I assume 192.168.2.41 is the address of the BL3 computer.
Can you ping that address?

Did you first execute "startxt" on BL3?
Please note that is startxt, not startx.

No. You startxt on BL3 and then (on the other computer):
-----------------------------
export DISPLAY:192.168.2.41:0
icewm
-----------------------------
