I have X/cygwin running and know about ssh tunneling, but that's not quite what
I'm looking for. What I want to do is basically ssh to the remote machine and
actually have a full X desktop from that machine running in cygwin, not just
apps called from xterm. Is that possible? Basically, I want what I normally see
when I type in startx on the remote machine to be what displays if I type startx
after ssh'ing to it on the local machine.

Thanks,
PJ
