I only know on localhost these steps should be done:
start cygwin
xinit
twm&
netstat -a (listening on TCP port 6000)
if you have X11 forwarding set to yes in /etc/ssh/sshd_config on the
remote host, you can simply ssh -X $HOSTNAME, and remote X11 applications
will be displayed locally. alternatively, if there is sufficient
bandwidth on both ends, and you have gdm, kdm, gdm or the like running on
the remote host, you can X -query $HOSTNAME, instead of twm, and get a
full X11 session on the remote host.
be careful to watch the security around the latter method.
but on remote host, what should I do?
You could also run vnc on the Linux bos, and that gives you the choice
of vnc clients on Windows (there are several) and using any java-capable
web browser.
