Okay! It works exactly how you'd expect it to, with a little
non-intuitive set-up. Here are some sites that were useful:
http://xfree86.cygwin.com/screenshots/
-- They had the correct command line for cygwin. It's down towards

screenshots, too, so you know what to expect when it works.

-- The howto, which is kind of confusing, for me anyway.
http://linux-sxs.org/remotexkdm.html
