Hm.. I don't see why that needs to be the case. If you have Cygwin+Xfree86 in your local as the X server, then if you ssh into the remote machine, you can just run any x-client. The x-client will connect to your local X-server (ie. cygwin). No X-server needs to run on the remote machine. > Although, > I can say that I have never started up Cygwin, ssh'ed into the remote > server and then run the 'startx' command.

You can only run X-client on the remote server.
