Subject: display remote X client on cygwin machine's display?

i have cygwin installed on my win2k box, and KDE-cygwin too, which work fine. When I ssh to my favorite linux-based server and run gnucash, I get "Gtk-WARNING" **: cannot open display:". Then I run KDE-cygwin and ssh to the same server from a Konsole, but I get the same error when I run gnucash. Yet this works when ssh'ing from my linux-based laptop, which runs KDE. Is there a way with cygwin to display X clients I launch on a remote machine on the local display?

best,
cyggie
