When I see "connection refuse by server" either the "xhost" is not set
correctly. "xhost +" gives access to everyone or "xhost UNIXbox"
allows connection to UNIXbox, only.
I use Cygwin/X often, but I find XMing is much better. Especially,
with the latest release of Xming and PuTTY, as they work together.
PuTTY is good at notifying you when the IP address gets changed.

It seems like you didn't set your DISPLAY environment variable, so X
tries to open a window on the local machine (your server) while it
should forward the display to the remote machine (your desktop running
Cygwin).
The simple solution would be:
for tcsh shell:
setenv DISPLAY <your desktop IP or hostname>:0.0
for bash shell
export DISPLAY=<your desktop IP or hostname>:0.0
and don't forget to allow other hosts to connect to the Xserver on
your desktop, this can be done using:
xhost + (which allows anyone to connect btw)
Although this procedure works I find it not very comfortable. A way
better solution is to install FreeNX on your server and to connect to
it using a NX client which you can download from www.nomachine.com.
This will export your whole X screen to the windows PC.
best regards,
Allard
