mind is CGI-scripting, but this is not an option for me.
I agree with Tim that essentially you are not really asking a Perl question, since you seem to be new to both Xwindows as well as the idea of Unix Services for Windows, and not sure how much of the '*nix' box needs to be directly connected to the Windows box to make the voodoo do the whoDoo you would like it to do.
So you might want to solve that set of issues before you start worrying about the idea of solving your 'client-server' issues with a round of CGI code that will wind up on some web server that will allow an 'all browser' approach to get you around using the Xwindows and/or SMB/NFS and/or ....
I can empathise with you on the concern here, since a part of the issues is how to set up a network where there are various services being provided by various server types and which need to allow users to 'plop right down on the box' with something like Xwindows - so that the user can have an xterm on that box, and which merely need a client side application...
But you may wish to check with say Hummingbird <http://www.hummingbird.com/exceedusers/>
and see if any of the specific issues you think you may be having with putty-exceeds have already been dealt with.
