Remote desktop X server linux using Cygwin

x -query [server ipaddress] :1 -from [myipaddress]

Also it seems that I need an entry for the client I am connecting from in the hosts file on the xwindows server.

I never used to need the -from switch... but I seem to now.


ALSO

change the window size:
x -query [server ipaddress] :1 -from [myipaddress] -screen 0 1024x768
