Most of the default X clients are able compile and run and are able to be
displayed locally and remotely on X servers including Saddiq's (et al) beta
quality Win32 X server (which is a direct port of XFree86) included in
XFree86 4.0.2.

Subject: Port of VNC X server to Windows?


How difficult would it be to port the VNC X server to Win9X/NT using
the cygwin tools?

The cygwin people have ported most of the X clients, but an up-to-date
free X server for Win32 seems to be missing.  I was thinking that perhaps
a port of the VNC X server to windows might not be that difficult.  The
server would be visible only through vncviewer connections.  Maybe even
multiple VNC X servers would be possible like in UNIX?

I'm not the best person for the job, but I'm willing to attempt such a port
if no one else is interested.  I would appreciate some feedback from people
more knowledgeable about with this would be easy, difficult, or impossible.

Thanks,
Tony Richardson
