Well I missed the export DISPLAY part.
but after doing that I get
Xlib: connection to <host>:0.0 refused by server
Xlib: no protocol specified
Xterm: xt error cannot open display

Aloha,
If I understand you correctly, you are running 1 pc as an X server and
you are trying to open an xterm session from pc 2 so it can be displayed
on pc 1.
If so have you tried :
http://xfree86.cygwin.com/docs/ug/using-remote-apps.html
I'm no where near understanding how X works myself. Only started using
it a few weeks ago. But I think that doc will help you.
