I've done this -- if you can get your friend to use VNC over SSH it will
make your life a lot easier.
If you can get a commercial X server like Hummingbird or Exceed, then
TTSSH is a good way to go. Just install both, set up a connection in
TTSSH and click the 'forward X' button. Done.
But if you can't get a commercial X server, you might want to look at
Cygwin. I'm using it on Win2K now to provide CLI. I've started X from
Cygwin once or twice to make sure it worked, but realize you're working
with twm until you can compile something else (easier said than done wih
Cygwin). You used to be able to get a free server from Metro, MI/X or
some such, but it was really quite awful.
