Exceed Setup for showing CDE from a HP-UX on Windows

Hi, I recently setup a rp3410 with HP-UX 11i version 1, and have just been connecting to it over TCP/IP with Putty. I need to install Oracle on it and need a GUI. I have Hummingbird Exceed 2006. When I launch it and connect I just get the plan ole terminal window. What settings do I need to change on the Exceed to view the CDE, and what commands do I need to excute on the HP-UX to be able to show the CDE on my win XP machine? Again since my UNIX brain is small, details would be much appreciated. THANKS ALL!!!

Hi,
On the PC
Click on Xstart
From Xstart menu use dtterm@HP
On the Execution Command (type the below):
/usr/dt/bin/dtterm -ls -display $DISPLAY
On Host; put the hp server IP, click Run

You will get a terminal with X on the left uppermost column.

On the server:
Prior to that you have to start the xserver on the server.
/sbin/init.d/dtlogin.rc start

export DISPLAY=YOUR-pc-ip:0.0
/usr/dt/bin/Xsession &

Well I tried your stuff, and went a little further. I typed:

#export DISPLAY=192.168.1.100 (my pc ip)

Then I went to Tools -> Configuration ->
Network Configuration

Then I set up the startup mode to: XDMCP Broadcast mode. Then when the box came up, I double clicked my server and hit ok. Now I have the full CDE desktop on my PC. Thanks for getting me started!

EDIT:

Opps I forgot to add the colon 0 on the end of that command

#export DISPLAY=192.168.1.100:0
