[ILUG] X-windows client for NT + HOw

[ILUG] X-windows client for NT + HOw

Let's be clear on terminology here.  An X client is an app
such as xterm, gimp, netscape.

An X server is the thing that runs the graphics card and
keyboard.

The original poster was actually looking for an X _server_
for NT, not a client.

Now, do you want to allow, say, netscape running on 
machine 'otherbox' to appear on the display on 'your-linux-box'?
Or do you want to allow the X server on 'your-nt-box' to
give you an XDM-style login window to 'your-linux-box'?
