Cygwin X is actually pretty good - you just have to turn off the
firewall on XP to let it work. On the Linux box run gdmconfig
and enable XDMCP, then restart X. On the windows box, from
a cygwin bash prompt enter:
Xwin -query your_server
and you will get the whole desktop from the linux box. Or,
you can run
Xwin -multiwindow
then 'ssh -X' to the linux box and each X program you start will
open a new window on your desktop.
However you need a low-latency connection for X to work well. You
probably won't like it over the internet to home. You might
like VNC better for remote access.
