Aloha,

As someone pointed out you can use Cygwin with X as an X terminal.
For remote admin of a linux/unix box that's pretty handy.  By invoking
this command from Cygwin before starting X:

	x -broadcast

you get a window that contains the whole remote desktop.  Is there a way
to create multiple separate such windows/desktops on one Cygwin system?
That would be mighty handy for admining multiple machines.


Thanks

Richard
