Re: remote Xorg login
It is possible, but first you will have to install an X-Server Server on your W2k machine. Choices include Xming, Cygwin/X, and Exceed, among others.
Then go to PuTTY Configuration->SSH->X11 and check "Enable X11 forwarding" and enter "localhost:0" for "X display location".
You may also have to add your client to the /etc/X*.hosts database on your server via the 'xhost' command.

Re: remote Xorg login
ssh -X hostname command
Works for me. There is probably a way to make this work from a windows host.

Re: remote Xorg login
http://sourceforge.net/projects/xming
Which should support W2k -thru- Vista
Follow the Installation Guide and RElease notes completely in order to set it up correctly.
Personally, I like to use VNC on both my W2k system and Fedora Core6... Works great and easy to use.
Cheers!

Re: remote Xorg login
Advantage: you do not have to install anything at all on your Windows machine, so you do not pay any license at all.
5 minutes to install.
xrdp is built on top of vnc
Prerequisites: first install openssl-devel and pam-devel
Download xrdp-0.4.0.tar.gz or later from http://xrdp.sourceforge.net
Compile:
cd
cd src
gzip -dc xrdp-0.4.0.tar.gz |tar -xf -
cd xrdp-0.4.0
make
Install:
su
make install
cd /etc/init.d
ln -s /usr/local/xrdp/xrdp_control.sh xrdp
cd /etc/init.d/rc5.d
ln -s ../init.d/xrdp S15xrdp
service xrdp start
You can also do the opposite: if you are logged in on Linux and you want to see your remote Windows desktop, just do:
ipconfig (to get the IP address of your Windows machine)
rdesktop -f 45.x.x.x

#service xrdp start

Re: remote Xorg login
For Red Hat or Fedora distributions, the correct startup is as follows:
First determine the default run level:
grep default /etc/inittab
...
id:3:initdefault:
If the run level is 3, then:
cd /etc/rc3.d
If the run level is 5, then:
cd /etc/rc5.d
ln -s ../init.d/xrdp S15xrdp
If KDE is not starting properly, as on your system, you could try the following:
vi /usr/local/xrdp/startwm
...
twm&
xterm
exit 0
If needed, stop and start xrdp
service xrdp stop
service xrdp start
Now start again the "Remote desktop client" on Windows XP, and login again... you should see at least an X-terminal
You could try as well with Gnome.
If your X-Windows display is not correctly created, then there is propably something wrong with Xvnc
Check if the following processes run:
ps -ef |grep vnc
geertvp 27692 27690 0 22:37 pts/0 00:00:01 Xvnc :10 -geometry 1280x800 -dep
ps -ef |grep sesman
root 27673 1 0 22:36 pts/0 00:00:00 ./sesman
ps -ef |grep xrdp
root 27671 1 0 22:36 pts/0 00:00:01 ./xrdp
Hope it works now?
