No, it doesn't run on the cut down machine it doesn't have Xserver installed, and is running text mode.

But unless
you made a typo, it is really strange that you set DISPLAY to
192.168.0.201:0 and the error is about trying to connect to
192.168.32.101:0.0. That is not even in the same subnet.
Correct. I made a typo when entering this query, sorry to confuse.

I strongly recommend using "ssh -Y" to tunnel the connection between
machines, as it is more secure.
Machine is cut down no ssh yet!

It also eleminates needing to run
xhost +192.168.0.99 and set DISPLAY. But if you are going to do it
this way, try running "xclock -display 192.168.0.201:0" and see what
that shows.
Error: can't open display: 192.168.32.201:0

{xserver is on 192.168.32.201, the cut down pachine is 192.168.32.99
 If that works, we can then work on what is going wrong
when you try and set DISPLAY.

OK, trying with ssh:
$ ssh -Y 192.168.32.99

I guess I don't have even the absolute minimum packages for an Xclient to run.
