Hmm you want run MS Windows applications on one windows 2000 box, and
look on them on another box, Windows/Unix/whatever.. 

X can't handle MSWindows windows, but VNC might be useful??

Then you don't need xfree86

Or you want to run an X-application and show it on an windows 2000
machine somewhere else?
