[SunHELP] Remote control

Well, I don't know where to look at this point... I'm trying to do remote GUI
sessions to my Sun box. I suppose I can use VNC, but I gather than X Terminal
(?) is more tightly integrated and would give better performance.

My attempts at getting anything running have failed. Either I'm missing
something, much stupider than I realized, or both. I'm trying to use
Cygwin/Xfree86 on the Windows box (because it's free).

I presume there's a non-server-specific way to start the client on the Unix
box? Typing "xterm" in a local session just opens a local window, and trying
to follow the Xfree86 instructions has simply failed.

Any clue?
