If you want to say that WindowsXP has "X" running on them, sure. And
running X over SSH does not get me the native desktop, which is what I
need.
I don't recall, in the OP, anything about XP being involved. So, based
on the fact that I (and a lot of other people I would bet) assumed this
was generating a remote desktop automatically on a headless box. I
suggested X over ssh because if the 'remote' machine has a desktop, then
it's got X. The same goes for the 'local' machine running XP, cygwin
gives you that capability even on XP. I've done that several times.
The lack of mention of XP in the OP certainly threw me off, along with a
few others I'd be willing to bet. Somehow I get the feeling that
particular detail might have been important and could have shortened
this thread considerably.
